'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2' plot rumors, news: Zoe Kravitz talks Leta Lestrange, filming schedule

"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was a big success, and it managed to reignite the magical frenzy that once surrounded the "Harry Potter" films. With four sequels on the way — and Zoe Kravitz signed on for the next — fans are wondering how Leta Lestrange will figure into everything.

Kravitz appeared very briefly in the first "Fantastic Beasts" film as Leta — in a picture that Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) had with him. And while it was clear that his relationship with Leta is a deep one, Kravitz recently revealed to Collider the nature of that bond between them.

"The relationship between Leta and Newt Scamander is a complex relationship, so I think there will be a lot of time for that to grow and develop, which will be fun," she said.

The actress also revealed that her role in the upcoming sequel is far bigger than the first. She explained how she felt signing on to the movie without knowing a lot about her character, although she felt a sense of comfort from the fact that J.K. Rowling is heavily involved. 

Apart from that, Kravitz divulged that she is set to film her scenes in June or July this year, which means the studio is not wasting any time getting back on that wagon. Despite filming about to begin soon, the actress admitted that she still doesn't know what lies ahead for her character, story-wise.

"I know nothing! I have an idea, based off of when I auditioned, but I know nothing," Kravitz revealed.

"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" mainly focused on Newt and his quest to gather all the magical creatures that escaped from his possession. Along the way, he encountered Credence (Ezra Miller), a powerful Obscurial, and Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp), the first dark wizard to threaten the magical order. He also met Tina (Katherine Waterston), Queenie (Alison Sudol), and Jacob (Dan Fogler) — all of whom will return for the sequel, which will largely center on Grindelwald, Credence, and a young Albus Dumbledore (who has yet to be cast).

"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2" will hit theaters on Nov. 16.
