Dan Fogler, while chatting with fans on his official Twitter earlier this week, admitted that the first Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them filming will take place in both London and New York City.

Fogler, who will play Muggle Jacob in the film series, also commented on meeting Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling and star Eddie Redmayne, what he thought of the script, and his absolute join in being part of the saga.

@ThiegoNovais both. they're building a time portal to New York.

@bravefawkes both are lovely to a point of brilliance.

Fogler confirmed further that filming will begin very soon - Warner Bros. already stated production will begin in August when announcing the casting call for Modesty earlier this month.

@ThiegoNovais very soon

As J.K. Rowling noted on her Twitter page months back, the story will begin in New York City with Scamander staying there longer than he had intended. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, to be directed by David Yates, will hit theaters in November 2016.
