SFX Wishlist: What do you want to see in Fantastic Beasts 2?

The Potterverse finally returned to our screens back in November, with old hand David Yates helming spin-off Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a prequel set in '20s New York. It did just the sort of business you'd expect, grossing over $800 million. 

Another four films are lined up, with the next scheduled for November 2018, but we don't really know much about it yet – not even the official title. 

Which is where you come in. What would you like to see in the next Fantastic Beasts film? Should the franchise still be focused on Eddie Redmayne's eye-contact-avoiding Newt Scamander, or would you like the spotlight to shift to another character? Which Fantastic Beasts stars would you like to see making a return? What would you like to see from Johnny Depp's Elder Wand-carrying big bad Gellert Grindelwald? Who should play the young Albus Dumbledore? And are there any other characters from the Harry Potter universe you'd like to see in their younger forms? 

What are you hoping for from the story? Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them started as a screwball romp, and morphed into something altogether darker – do you want that trajectory to continue? We also know that at least part of the sequel will be set in Paris – what do you want to see from the wizarding version of the French capital? Should it hark back to Dumbledore's unrequited love for Grindelwald?
