The trailer does not reveal too much about the plot, however, it does shows Dumbledore and Scamander teaming up to find a recently escaped Grindelwald, whose escape was shown at the very end of the first Fantastic Beasts.

Fans are also excited about the movie because it will reveal more about the dynamic relationship between Grindelwald and Dumbledore. In the past, Rowling has confirmed that Dumbledore is gay and was in love with Grindelwald in his youth. However, director David Yates told fans that his sexuality will not be explicitly explained in the film. “He had a very intense relationship with Grindelwald when they were young men. They fell in love with each other’s ideas, and ideology, and each other,” Yates explained in an interview.
