Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is filled with magical revelations, but some of the most interesting moments happen at Hogwarts. Not only do we learn more about Albus Dumbledore's family tree and his relationship with Gellert Grindelwald, but we also get a glimpse of Newt Scamander's time in school. While Eddie Redmayne won us over with his role as the Hufflepuff wizard in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a brand-new actor steps into the role during flashbacks in the sequel.
Up-and-coming actor Joshua Shea takes on the role of the young wizard. While he certainly bares a striking resemblance to Redmayne and perfectly mimics his mannerisms in the film, little is known about the British star. According to an interview with Song Academy in April, he is 15 and hails from Jersey, which is near the coast of Normandy, France. This is actually his first feature film!

It seems Remus Lupin took a page out of a young Albus Dumbledore’s book when he had Harry Potter and his classmates line up to take on a boggart in the film “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.”
In the new “Fantastic Beasts” film, “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald,” audiences get to see Jude Law’s much-younger Dumbledore during his teaching days at Hogwarts. In one particular flashback, a young Newt Scamander, played by Joshua Shea, is brought in front of the infamous boggart while in Dumbledore’s Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
The boggart turns into desk, since Newt’s worst fear is being made to work in an office, which makes sense for the famed magizoologist.

We’ve seen him walk the streets of 1920s Paris and rummage through that iconic briefcase, but for the latest Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald media dump, we’re introduced to a young, panic-stricken Newt Scamander (Joshua Shea) standing within the hallowed halls of Hogwarts.
Via EW, below you’ll see a high-res shot of the young Newt standing next to Albus Dumbledore. Gone are the half-moon spectacles and in their place are, well, Jude Law, who’s agreed to play the world-famous wizard long before he was announced as Hogwarts Headmaster.
And Newt? We know he was tossed out of school for “endangering human life,” so perhaps this flashback scene will shed some light on that pivotal moment? We’ll find out very soon. For the meantime, here’s a vintage shot of Newt Scamander dressed in Hufflepuff robes.
