Aquilo que todo mundo queria aconteceu: a Warner ACABA de anunciar uma parceria com a escritora J.K. Rowling para produzir um NOVO filme baseado em Harry Potter. Será Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, que abrirá toda uma nova franquia estrelada pelo personagem Newt Scamander. Esta será a estreia de Rowling como roteirista — o que demonstra não só um empenho dela, mas também uma preocupação de que tudo saia do jeito que ela quer.
Não, hoje não é 1º de abril — pode olhar no calendário. ;)
Os fãs de Harry Potter já sabem que é Scamander: trata-se do autor do livro Animais Fantásticos e Onde Habitam (que é o nome do filme recém-anunciado), justamente um dos lidos pelos alunos de Hogwarts na série Harry Potter. A obra é mencionada pela primeira vez em Harry Potter e a Pedra Filosofal. Além disso, o livro em si já foi publicado no ~mundo real, com a própria Rowling escrevendo.
De qualquer forma, é bom que se diga que o filme não adaptará o livro. Será uma história original, com os perrengues passados pelo autor fictício ao escrever a obra fictícia. “Não se trata de uma prequência ou sequência de Harry Potter, mas uma extensão do universo de magia”, disse Rowling no comunicado oficial da Warner. “Embora vá se passar na comunidade mundial de bruxas e magos onde fui tão feliz por 17 anos, ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ não é nem uma prequência ou uma sequência da saga Harry Potter, mas uma extensão do mundo fantástico. As leis e costumes da sociedade mágica secreta será familiar a qualquer um que já leu os livros da série ou assistiu aos filmes, mas a história de Newt começará em Nova York, 70 anos antes do surgimento de Harry”.
Eis o Newt Scamander. Será que veremos ele no Brasil em algum filme? :D
Trata-se de uma oportunidade única, claro. Uma forma de continuar lucrando com a franquia do bruxo sem fazer algo que alterasse ou lidasse com os livros anteriores. “Tudo começou quando a Warner Bros. veio até mim com a sugestão de transformar ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ num filme.” disse Rowling. “Eu achei que era um ideia divertida, mas a ideia de ver Newt Scamander, o suposto autor de ‘Fantastic Beasts’, imaginado por outro escritor era difícil. Tendo vivido tanto tempo no meu universo fictício, me sinto muito protetora do mesmo e eu já sei bastante sobre Newt. Como os fãs hard-core de Harry Potter sabem, eu gosto tanto dele que casei seu neto, Rolf, com um dos meus personagens favoritos da saga Harry Potter, Luna Lovegood”.
O estúdio também anunciou uma ampliação dos acordos com J.K., incluindo uma expansão continua do Wizarding World of Harry Potter, que é uma das partes do Universal Studios Park em Orlando e que também vai ganhar versões no Universal Studios Park de Hollywood e no de Osaka (Japão), novos videogames, produtos diversos e por aí vai.
WB também anunciou que irá distribuir a minissérie baseada no livro Casual Vacancy, ou Morte Súbita, como é chamado no Brasil. A série começa a ser produzida em 2014 pela BBC.
Não preciso nem dizer que a galera da Warner está soltando rojões com a conquista, comercialmente falando. “Estamos incrivelmente honrados que Jo tenha decidido ser parceira da Warner Bros. nessa nova e excitante exploração do mundo da bruxaria que vem sendo um sucesso em todos os nossos negócios.” disse Kevin Tsujihara, Chief Executive Officer da Warner Bros. Entertainment. “Ela é uma escritora extraordinária, que iniciou uma revolução da leitura ao redor do mundo, que depois se tornou uma fenômeno sem precedentes no cinema. Nós sabemos que o público estará tão empolgado quanto nós pra ver o que a sua imaginação brilhante e sem limites podem conjurar para nós”.

Warner Bros. Announces Expanded Creative Partnership with J.K. Rowling

Partnership Spans All Areas of Warner Bros.’ Harry Potter Businesses, Including Theme Parks, Digital Initiatives, Games and Visitor Attractions

Plus Studio to Serve as Global International TV Distributor of J.K. Rowling’s Upcoming Adaptation of her Book “The Casual Vacancy” for the BBC
BURBANK, Calif. & LONDON– Warner Bros. Entertainment today announced an expanded creative partnership with world-renowned, best-selling author J.K. Rowling. At the center of the partnership is a new film series from Rowling’s world of witches and wizards, inspired by Harry Potter’s Hogwarts textbook “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” and the adventures of the book’s fictitious author, Newt Scamander. The announcement was made by Kevin Tsujihara, Chief Executive Officer, Warner Bros. Entertainment.
“Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” will be an original story and will mark Rowling’s screenwriting debut. It is planned as the first picture in a new film series. Set in the wizarding world, the story will feature magical creatures and characters, some of which will be familiar to devoted Harry Potter fans.
“Although it will be set in the worldwide community of witches and wizards where I was so happy for seventeen years, ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ is neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series, but an extension of the wizarding world,” said Rowling. “The laws and customs of the hidden magical society will be familiar to anyone who has read the Harry Potter books or seen the films, but Newt’s story will start in New York, seventy years before Harry’s gets underway.” (Expanded Rowling quote at bottom of release.)
“We are incredibly honored that Jo has chosen to partner with Warner Bros. on this exciting new exploration of the world of wizardry which has been tremendously successful across all of our businesses,” said Tsujihara. “She is an extraordinary writer, who ignited a reading revolution around the world, which then became an unprecedented film phenomenon. We know that audiences will be as excited as we are to see what her brilliant and boundless imagination conjures up for us.”
In addition to the film series, “Fantastic Beasts” will also be developed across the Studio’s video game, consumer products and digital initiatives businesses, including enhanced links with Pottermore.com, Rowling’s digital online experience built around the Harry Potter stories.
The Studio’s expanded partnership with Rowling also covers the continued expansion of its Harry Potter activities, including the wonderful Wizarding World of Harry Potter theme parks in conjunction with partner Universal Parks and Resorts (currently in Orlando, FL; opening in Hollywood, CA and Osaka, Japan), digital initiatives (including Pottermore), video games, consumer products and visitor attractions.
In addition, Warner Bros. will serve as the worldwide TV distributor (excluding the U.K.) of J.K. Rowling’s upcoming television adaptation for the BBC of “The Casual Vacancy,” her best-selling first novel aimed at adult audiences. This miniseries begins production in 2014.
The relationship will be managed in London by Neil Blair of The Blair Partnership, Rowling’s literary agency, and Josh Berger, President & Managing Director, Warner Bros. UK, Ireland and Spain, who will serve as Warner Bros.’ chief business contact for all J.K. Rowling initiatives going forward.
Rowling’s expanded quote regarding “Fantastic Beasts” is below:
“It all started when Warner Bros. came to me with the suggestion of turning ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ into a film. I thought it was a fun idea, but the idea of seeing Newt Scamander, the supposed author of ‘Fantastic Beasts,’ realized by another writer was difficult. Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it and I already knew a lot about Newt. As hard-core Harry Potter fans will know, I liked him so much that I even married his grandson, Rolf, to one of my favourite characters from the Harry Potter series, Luna Lovegood.
As I considered Warners’ proposal, an idea took shape that I couldn’t dislodge. That is how I ended up pitching my own idea for a film to Warner Bros.

I particularly want to thank Kevin Tsujihara of Warner Bros. for his support in this project, which would not have happened without him. I always said that I would only revisit the wizarding world if I had an idea that I was really excited about and this is it.”
