Trailers and movies on Social Media: #FantasticBeasts

Trailers are made to create a buzz about a movie. Some sagas are followed by millions of people all around the world. Sometimes it is not the saga that creates expectancy but the actors featuring the movie. For example, people will follow Clint Eastwood in almost every movie he is in. We can not write about the latest movie sagas and not mention the Harry Potter movies. Finally, #FantasticBeasts! Even though the first movie was released in 2001, this Wizarding World is followed nowadays by millions and trillions of people. Let’s go through the Fantastic Beasts Twitter activity.

A tweet turned Twitter upside down: #FantasticBeasts

Just a tweet was necessary to make fans go crazy. The account @FanstasticBeasts tweeted and suddenly the numbers of RTs and FAVs began to increase. This is the third and last trailer they have released about this movie.

For some viewers, three trailers may not seem enough. However, you have to pay attention as each trailer reveals new secrets about the movie and the saga. Main aspects about the trailers are: Dumbledore gives Newt directions for a safe house (what for?), Grindewald has escaped (oh, oh), Credence is still alive (good or bad?) and Jacob is back on Wizard sphere (yay!). But the main thing that left all of us speechless is one name: Nagini. Crazy, right? Let’s see how Twitter reacted to this revelation.

Fantastic Beasts on Twitter: Nagini is back

As we have never heard that much about Nagini, her appearance in this trailer drove everyone crazy. Who is she? For how long has J.K. Rowling kept this a secret? Was this planned? Lots of questions where sent into the Twitter world, some of them even got an answer for J.K. Rowling herself. In fact, we have run a PRO report including just original tweets (RTs are excluded from this report) mentioning #FantasticBeasts AND Nagini. Our hashtag tracking tool has no limits.
