Eddie Red-maybe

[birdsofshore]

So, what do we think about Eddie Redmayne apparently being confirmed in the role of Newt Scamander in the Fantastic Beasts film?



If you're not sure who he is, he's a British actor who recently won a lot of awards for his role as Stephen Hawking in The Theory of Everything.

Personally, I think I'm fairly happy about it.

Is there a different actor you hoped would star in the film? Let me know all of your thoughts in the comments, please!

I know he's won all the big prizes this winter (Oscar included) but as the worst movie watcher ever, I have no clue about his other films beside Hawking.

It's unlikely going to change with that film because I don't care if I'll watch it sooner (at the cinema) or later (at home).

Sorry, I'm no help either. ;p

I'm quite excited about the film in general, and if this is the direction the casting's going in, I feel optimistic.
