- Fantastic Beasts 2: Did you know the only two actors from Harry Potter?
On a related note, the three prequel feature films that follow Norbert Scamander’s adventures in Fantastic Beasts are nothing to be ashamed of either, and indeed contain many small sagas.
in 45 minutes and 11 seconds
Airing tonight on TF1, Dumbledore’s Secrets, the final part of the trilogy, also spawns Harry Potter references. But one of them, which takes place exactly 45 minutes and 11 seconds into the film, has raised a lot of eyebrows among fans of the franchise because it poses a huge problem with consistency.
In the sequence in question, Dumbledore and his brother Abelfort are at the Hog’s Head, a pub in Hogsmeade. The Headmaster of Hogwarts then gets a surprise visit from Minerva McGonagall, who comes to tell him that Grindelwald has been acquitted of all the crimes he committed in Berlin.
For this occasion, played by young actress Fiona Glascott, the famous professor appears to be in her early twenties and just beginning her career at Hogwarts.
A chronology error
But here it is: according to the chronology of the magical saga and the information you can find on various fan sites, he should never have been here at this exact moment, simply because in the early 1930s (when the feature film takes place) he was usually not born yet. .
Indeed, her date of birth (assumed based on details in JK Rowling’s works) was October 4, 1935. And he wouldn’t begin teaching at Hogwarts until 1956, nearly 25 years after his appearance in Fantastic Beasts. .
What do you think of this strange apparition? Is this a huge chronological error? Or a new magic trick?
