The Harry Potterspinoff Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them has found the one ingredient it was missing in order to cast a spell on audiences, as Zoe Kravitz has joined the Harry Potterspinoff, Mashablehas confirmed.

David Yates is directing Fantastic Beasts, which stars Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Ezra Miller and Colin Farrell.

Set in New York 70 years before the events depicted in the Harry Pottermovies, the spinoff follows Newt Scamander (Redmayne), a Magizoologist who crosses paths with witches and wizards as he searches for magical creatures. The book he ends up writing about his experiences is later part of the curriculum at Hogwarts, where Harry and his friends go to school.
