The makers have released the first glimpse of the title in steel grey colour and toothy, serpentine design.
"Fantastic Beasts" stars Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne as magizoologist, Newt Scamander and is set in New York in 1926, 70 years before Harry Potter reads Scamanders book in his wizarding school.

Inspired by Hogwarts textbook of the same name, "Fantastic Beasts" is slated for a US release on December 18, 2016.
David Yates is helming the project written by author JK Rowling.
