Lumos foundraiser event, Fantastic Beasts news

Yesterday J.K. Rowling participated in a live chat broadcast on Facebook to launch the latest initiative of her charity, Lumos, called We Are Lumos Worldwide!
As described on Lumos’s official website,
We Are Lumos Worldwide is
"[…] an exciting series of global events to help
some of the world’s most vulnerable children leave orphanages and regain their right to a family life."
At the official Lumos event, Rowling spoke with host Lauren Laverne about why the work that Lumos does to end the institutionalization of children worldwide is so important.

In support of the new initiative Eddie Redmayne attended the Lumos charity event too.

I think Eddie wore the same double-breasted jacket in October and November 2014


and I think he wore this at Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show too.

Entertainment Weekly confirmed that Eddie will be introducing a “sneak peek” at the two-day pop culture
festival being held Oct. 29-30 in California.
EW PopFest just got even more fantastic. In addition to special screenings, signings and previews at the
two-day event, Eddie Redmayne will take the stage to reveal an exclusive sneak peek of the Harry Potter
prequel Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. Potterheads can look forward to a Q&A with the film’s
star ahead of the preview that will be screened for attendees on Sunday, Oct. 30.

The dates coincide with the BAFTA Britannia Awards in Los Angeles, so here’s hoping he can pay
tribute to Felicity Jones, who is being honored as British Star of the Year! (via)
The annual gala celebration will take place on Friday, October 28, 2016 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

bespokeredmayne: Newt-Tina-Jacob-Queenie: Here’s your Fantastic Beasts quartet,
soon to become film legends.

Just sending out a little update regarding the Fantastic Beasts premiere. The 15th Nov is now looking more
towards the New York premiere date. The London premiere will also be the world premiere therefore
it's possible (not confirmed) that the date could be Monday 7th November.
(We are waiting for a confirmation)


Technical note: tumblr changed the url of many gifs. It's possible, that some pics are missing from my older posts.
I check the posts and fix them, but it takes for a while. Until then check the source links for the pictures.
