Read our privacy policy Ezra Miller has claimed that the cast in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald were not consulted about Johnny Depp having a starring role in the film. Depp reprises his role as the villain Grindelwald in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sequel, which caused controversy due to the actor’s controversial behaviour over the past few years. Miller, who plays Credence Barebone in the franchise, spoke with Playboy in a wide-ranging interview where he was asked about JK Rowling’s decision not to recast Depp’s role.
