The new film will feature Newt Scamander, the fictional author of the textbook Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them, owned and read by students at Hogwarts school.

Rowling said: "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."

Warner Bros, the film company that made the Harry Potter movies, does not know yet when the new film will be made.
