Fantastic Beasts, The Crimes of Grindelwald [UK] Page 9
The Admonitors fall from DUMBLEDORE’S wrists.
The vial – blood troth – hangs in the air between them.
NEWT
Can you destroy it?
DUMBLEDORE
Maybe . . . maybe.
Overcome, tearful, he tries to speak cheerfully.
DUMBLEDORE
(of the Niffler)
Would he like a cup of tea?
They turn to walk back towards Hogwarts.
NEWT
He’ll have some milk. Hide the teaspoons.
The others walk slowly after them.
SCENE 120
INT. NURMENGARD CASTLE—DAWN
GRINDELWALD
You have suffered the most heinous of betrayals, most purposely bestowed upon you by your own blood. Your own flesh and blood. And just as he has celebrated your torment, your brother seeks to destroy you.
CREDENCE inhales sharply. His chick steps gingerly onto GRINDELWALD’S palm. GRINDELWALD throws it in the air, where it catches alight.
GRINDELWALD
There is a legend in your family that a phoenix will come to any member who is in dire need.
Given room at last, the bird stretches its wings and becomes full size. The bird is aflame, a phoenix reborn.
GRINDELWALD
It is your birthright, my boy. As is the name I now restore to you.
(whispers)
Aurelius. Aurelius Dumbledore.
(beat)
We will go down in history together, as we remake this world.
CREDENCE turns. The power of his Obscurus can at last be channelled. He points the wand at the window and a spell of immense power shatters the glass and breaks apart the mountain opposite.
CREDENCE stands staring through the shattered glass at his handiwork. He is extraordinary, and this is just his beginning.

J.K. Rowling is the author of the much-loved series of seven Harry Potter novels, originally published between 1997 and 2007. Along with the three companion books written for charity, the series has sold over 500 million copies, been translated into over 80 languages, and made into eight blockbuster films.
Originally written by J.K. Rowling in aid of Comic Relief as a Hogwarts textbook, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them became the inspiration behind a new and original five-film series for Warner Bros., the first of which was released in 2016. The second film in the series, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, was released in November 2018.
J.K. Rowling has collaborated with playwright Jack Thorne and director John Tiffany on a stage play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, which opened in London’s West End in 2016 and on Broadway in 2018, and will have further worldwide openings in 2019.
J.K. Rowling also writes the Cormoran Strike crime novels, under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. The fourth in this series was published in autumn 2018. The Strike books have been adapted for television for BBC and HBO television by Brontë Film & Television. J.K. Rowling is also the author of The Casual Vacancy, a stand-alone novel for adults, published in 2012.
This book was designed and illustrated by London-based design studio MinaLima. Its founders, Miraphora Mina and Eduardo Lima, were the graphic designers on both Fantastic Beasts films and all eight films in the Harry Potter series. Their work has been influential in shaping the visual style of the Wizarding World: from film production to theme park graphics, and bestselling published works.
The cover and illustrations in this book were based on elements and creatures in the story. Its 1920s Art Nouveau rendering echoes the aesthetic of the film and retains an ongoing theme from J.K. Rowling’s screenplay Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, also designed by MinaLima.
The illustrations were drawn by hand and finished in Adobe Photoshop.
