Will it lead up to the start of World War II, or would that real-world war be left to play out opposite the magical one in the fourth and fifth movies? Time will tell. There has been no confirmation about the third movie's timeline. The second movie was set in 1927 but, as shown above, Rowling hinted at the third movie being set at least in part in the 1930s. The five-film Fantastic Beasts series is expected to span from 1926 to 1945, with the final movie including the big duel between Grindelwald and Dumbledore. Producer David Heyman later explained that she began by expecting three films but then, as she dug deeper and started writing the first script, she realized there was a lot more story to tell and didn't think she could fit it all into three movies. Rowling surprised fans when she revealed that she was actually planning to write five movies for the Fantastic Beasts series.
