In October 2014, Warner Bros.

Rowling had gotten ideas for the third film's screenplay.[8] In October 2016, it was reported that the Fantastic Beasts film series would comprise five films, and Eddie Redmayne would be returning to all films to play the lead role of Newt Scamander, with producers Rowling, David Heyman, Steve Kloves, and Lionel Wigram.[9] In November 2016, Yates revealed that he would be directing all five films, stating "I love making films, and I've got a great team, all of whom are like family."[10] In October 2018, Johnny Depp hinted that he might return to portray Gellert Grindelwald for the third film, which would start filming in the mid of next year.[11]

In November 2019, Steve Kloves, who had previously served as screenwriter on the Harry Potter films, joined the project as co-writer.[12] In March 2020, Jude Law, Johnny Depp, Ezra Miller, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Katherine Waterston, and Jessica Williams were revealed to be reprising their roles from prior films, alongside Redmayne.[13] Principal photography was scheduled to begin on 16 March 2020 but was postponed on that same day, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13] By September of the same year, filming had officially commenced with safety precautions in place to keep the cast and crew safe from COVID-19.[3]
