J.K. Rowling answers 'Fantastic Beasts' questions on Newt's travel, Grindelwald, Tina
 

With the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie now finally released in theaters, J.K. Rowling took to Twitter to answer a few fan questions that were stumping them about the feature. Some include why and how Newt Scamander took a non-wizard mode of transportation from the UK to New York City in 1926, President Picquery's ideals compared to Grindelwald's, and what's to come from Auror Tina Goldstein.

Loved the movie. Burning Q from my wife though: How come Newt travels by boat to cross the Atlantic instead of apparating?:

@jk_rowling they might splinch, right? O_O

Is there some sort of Magical Customs for wizards? Maybe not in the years of the Ellis Island ships, but how about now? :)
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Newt went in through the No-Maj customs because wizards wouldn't have been so easy to fool. Transporting those creatures was illegal. <a href="https://t.co/EbomTsPo8K">https://t.co/EbomTsPo8K</a></p>&mdash; J.K.

Why couldn't Newt have used a portkey? It can't have been difficult for him to register one since he works at the Ministry.

@jk_rowling Still not sure what to think about the president, honestly... Like, in a way I see that she makes sense, but is it wrong that I also see sense in things Grindelwald mentioned?

I love Tinaaaaaaarghh. She's more lovely with Newt, though.

@jk_rowling are we going to see more of her? I really want to see more of Tina being badas-
