Funny: If David Yates is OK with Johnny Depp starring as the villain in The Crimes of Grindelwald, and if J.K. Rowling is OK with Johnny Depp in the movie, then why does the first trailer feature so little of him (a split second shot at the end of the trailer)? You think the marketing people understand what Yates and Rowling do not, or is this a case where they simply want to hold back on featuring much of the villain?

I’ll give the trailer this much, and only about this much: Jude Law makes one hell of a charming Dumbledore. Shame about that Depp fella, though.
