New Fantastic Beasts 2 Photos Feature Baby Nifflers, Pickett The Bowtruckle


We already know that Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald will focus on Johnny Depp's villainous character. However, that doesn't mean we won't be seeing more of the amazing creatures that Newt Scamander deals with. The new images for Fantastic Beasts 2 offer a better look at the adorable (and mischievous) baby nifflers as well as Pickett the Bowtruckle.

The niffler was undoubtedly one of the major scene-stealers in the first film as it wreaked havoc at a bank as well as a jewelry store. Interestingly, the same creature has produced four offsprings that are just as attracted to shiny objects like their parent. You can find an adorable brown one as well as a cheeky multi-colored baby niffler in the photos below (via Collider).
