SnitchSeeker.com - Photos: 'Fantastic Beasts' new SDCC trailer reveals many new magical creatures & characters

The latest Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them trailer, debuting at this weekend's San Diego Comic-Con, revealed some vary familiar magical creatures for those who read the original schoolbook from J.K. Rowling, as well as new characters to the film.

A screencaps breakdown, below, takes note of some of those creatures (including one representing Rowling's own Ilvermorny house), and a first look at two characters announced quite a while back. The trailer itself ends with an ominous showdown between Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) and the NYPD circa 1926.

We start off with Colin Farrell's character, Auror Percival Graves, walking toward a demolished building (looks to be what was a brownstone in Manhattan), and those nearby noting that something that looked like 'a ghost' with 'shining white eyes' was spotted causing the mess.

The creature then breaks through a cobbled street and creates a break in the middle of the road, all the while Graves watches.

The next scene shows Tina Goldstein (Katherine Waterston) running covertly through the MACUSA headquarters, with Newt's briefcase in hand. Waterston admitted at Comic-Con that she worked as an Auror under Graves (he was her direct boss) and that she lost her position for currently unknown reasons.

A house-elf is spotted, and it looks like it's been given the job of polishing wands. Well, that's something.

MACUSA President Seraphina Picquery resides over what looks like a court while her right-hand man Graves watches on.

It looks like Tina's knocking on some enchanted door to get into what could be a speakeasy in New York City, as shown by the second photo of a wizard playing a magical deck of cards.

We're back to seeing Jacob (Dan Fogler) opening Newt's enchanted briefcase. Or rather, it just sort of opened itself and a magical creature jumped out at him.

Tina brings the boys home, and here they meet her sister Queenie (Alison Sudol) for the first time. Queenie even has a sweet nickname for her big sister, 'Teeny'.

And here slithers the frightful Occamy... another one of Newt's fun creatures to have sprung out from his suitcase to cause mayhem.

Here's another speakeasy, this time with goblins running afoot. It looks like we've finally got our first glimpse of actor Ron Perlman, who confirmed a while back he was playing a goblin who runs a speakeasy. You can even spot Tina and Newt sitting behind him.

Some very ominous words from President Picquery, who states that if No-Majs are attacked, war will ensue with wizarding kind.

Newt, in true tactless fashion, tells Jacob to wear a helmet owing to his injury-susceptible head as they search (or hunt?) for magical creatures in the park.

A Thunderbird (yes, just like the Ilvermonry house it's named after) is spotted flying around a crowd in Manhattan.

Newt summons the Swooping Evil back into his palm, while holding onto Tina tight. Yes, those are fallen bodies surrounding them (dead? just injured?).

This might be the fight between Tina and Graves that Katherine Waterston accidentally revealed during the SDCC chat, where former boss and employee are going head-to-head on the streets of New York City.

We come to a major showdown between Newt and New York City's finest, who have him surrounded. Little do they know there's something bigger and far deadlier about to attack them all.

And the trailer finishes off with this adorable scene between Newt and Jacob, the latter proclaiming how much he'd love to be a wizard!
