Post 'Fantastic Beasts' sequel to hold open casting for 5 new roles, including teen Newt

Warner Bros. announced that five new roles are up for grabs for the sequel of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, set to begin filming this August.

Among those roles to be cast include teen versions of Newt Scamander, Leta Lestrange, Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore. A fifth, new character will be cast as well, with the name Sebastian.

They are also looking for actors between 16 and 18 to portray both Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore as teenagers. So, if you know any young acting hopefuls who know their Elder Wand-lore, or have a penchant for Sherbert Lemons, now is the time to let them know.

To apply for the Fantastic Beasts open casting call, email casting.prod@wb.uc-ns.com with a recent colour photograph, (i.e., taken within the last two months), contact telephone number, your home address and date of birth. Anyone under 18 must ask a parent or guardian to send the application.

No previous acting experience is necessary, but applicants need to be eligible to work in the UK (meaning they must be a UK, Irish or EU passport holder), and be available for filming between August and November 2017.

The closing date for applications is Tuesday, 20 June 2017 at midnight GMT. If there is interest in pursuing an application further, the applicant will hear back within 14 days of their original submission. While every applicant will be considered, only those passing the initial consideration round will be contacted.
Those confirmed to star in the sequel include Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Ezra Miller, Zoe Kravitz, Johnny Depp, Callum Turner, and Jude Law.
