You’ve probably heard about the not-so-pleasant news that star Johnny Depp is ending up as the sorcerer of Grindelwald in Fantastic Animals. If you don’t know what’s going on, this previous one will serve you well article. After Depp’s departure, Warner Bros. is looking for a replacement for the role. According to the latest reports, she is being discussed by an excellent Danish actor…
A man who seems to have been born for the roles of negative or morally ambiguous characters. Mads Mikkelsen certainly stuck to many viewers as a negative Le Chiffre in a Bond game Casino Royale, or the title character of the series Hannibal. Recent films include the praised drama Booze, or the action thriller on Netflix Polar. Mikkelsen also appeared as the main villain in the film Doctor Strange produced by the Marvel studio.
At the very least, it will be interesting to see how Mikkelsen (who, objectively speaking, really fits the role (he could even be similar to Depp in the role) and is a very charismatic actor) is received by fans. Be Depp with his departure at the request of Warner Bros. in connection with the case concerning his former partner Amber Heard did not hesitate, it was the fans who had already written a petition demanding his return.
Mads Mikkelsen seems to be negotiating the terms and conditions, and his participation is almost certain. The third part of the Fantastic Animals series will hit cinemas in July 2022 (the premiere was moved from the original November 2021). David Yates will take care of the direction again, while JK Rowling and Steve Kloves are in charge of the script.
