New footage has been released from the eagerly-anticipated Harry Potter spin-off movie, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

Oscar-winner Eddie Redmayne, who stars as Newt Scamander in the film, introduced the latest trailer at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles.

After emerging from a suitcase on stage, the British actor said: “Myself and the rest of the cast had such an astounding time getting to leap back into the world of JK Rowling’s imagination.

“And I’m properly excited to share with you tonight just a wee glimpse of what’s in store this November.”

The opening scenes show Redmayne’s character arriving in 1920s New York by boat, while a voice – believed to be Colin Farrell’s – can be heard saying: “You’re an interesting man, Mr Scamander. Just like your suitcase, I think there’s more to you than meets the eye.

“Kicked out of Hogwarts for danger to human life with a beast. Yet one of your teachers argued strongly against your expulsion.

“I wonder what makes Albus Dumbledore so fond of you, Mr Scamander?”

Redmayne’s character is shown turning a switch on his suitcase to read “Muggle worthy” as he hands it over for a security check before entering America.

Various scenes from the film include a man holding newspaper front page revealing there is an international hunt for a wizard, and Farrell, whose character Percival Graves is set with the task of tracking down Newt, firing a wand.

Newt is seen jumping off a building and disappearing, before Farrell’s character says: “No human could do what this thing is capable of.”

The trailer ends with the famous Harry Potter theme before Newt jumps out of bed and magically climbs down steps inside his suitcase.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is due for release in November.
