How Many Fantastic Beasts Movies Are There?
Your Ultimate Guide to the Fantastic Beasts Franchise
5
Both the release date and title for "Fantastic Beasts 5" remain a mystery. In a November 2016 interview with Variety, Rowling teased the franchise would span across 19 years in the wizarding world, meaning the fifth film would take place in 1945. Diehard Harry Potter fans know that's the same year Dumbledore and Grindelwald have their infamous duel after their blood pact is destroyed. Their fight ends the global wizarding war and results in Dumbledore becoming the new owner of the Elder Wand, as well as the new Hogwarts headmaster. With this in mind, we can assume the franchise will end with Dumbledore becoming the respected leader we eventually know him to be in the Harry Potter books and movies.
