Warner Bros. has released a new image from upcoming Harry Potter spinoff film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

The image shows protagonist Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) running up some steps in New York City of the 1920s, carrying his very important suitcase with him.

"Newt is a magizoologist who's just completed a global journey to find and document magical creatures for a book he plans on writing," Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts producer David Heyman tells Empire. "His case is important because it contains some of the creatures he's been researching. It may be small, but there's a whole world within."

Fantastic Beasts and where to find them is directed by Harry Potter veteran David Yates, and is the screenwriting debut of Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling. The film stars Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Samantha Morton, Ezra Miller, Colin Farrell, Faith Wood-Blagrove, Carmen Ejogo, Jon Voight and Ron Perlman.
