Harry Potter writer J.K. Rowling took some time to talk about the upcoming film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which is out this fall. She started off the short speech by saying:
"My heroes are always people who feel themselves to be set apart, stigmatized or othered." You can view the whole thing below:

That's definitely one of the reasons we loved Harry so much. Will we love Newt Scamander too? He looks like a character I can get on board with.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them releases on November 18th.
