Just a few days back, three new photos taken from 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald' hinted that the film would take place in Paris. The first film was set in New York, and considering the location for the sequel, it's as if J.K. Rowling's latest saga will take us all over the world. Clearly, the wizarding world isn't just limited to London as we might once have thought.

David Yates, the director of the saga has already confirmed that the plan is to explore the limits of the magical world. "Jo's already told us where the next one is taking place. It's very exciting. This is a global story, ultimately. And given that there's a global audience for this, it's all the more delightful to take the story to different parts of the world", he mentioned.

Just where might the next film be set? We wonder. It might very well take place in Germany, given the time in which the saga is set. But wouldn't a 'Fantastic Beasts' film set in a country like China make it all the more magical? We already know that there's going to be five films in total, the second instalment is set for UK release on 16th November 2018.

Locations from 'Harry Potter'

The 'Harry Potter' films name very few locations, we already know that magical schools, Durmstrang and Beaauxbatons exist in both Norway/Sweden and France, respectively. 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' expanded the magical world to the US, and it appears as though that was just the beginning.
