Complete your Harry Potter collection with J.K. Rowling's 'Fantastic Beasts' screenplay

J.K. Rowling's library of Harry Potter non-books is growing every day. Pottermore announced Tuesday that the screenplay for the upcoming film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them will be published in conjunction with the movie's release.

The screenplay will be available as an eBook on Pottermore; print editions will be available online and in stores as well.

Fantastic Beasts joins Cursed Child in Rowling's new repertoire of Potter products for different mediums. The two-part play's script will publish in July as sold-out performances continue in London.

The upcoming film -- based loosely on Rowling's 2001 Potter supplemental, a textbook about different types of magical creatures -- follows the adventures of magizoologist Newt Scamander as he tries to keep track of his subjects. Here's a synopsis, from Pottermore:

The film opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander, played by Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne, has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident…were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical briefcase, and the escape of some of Newt’s fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds.

The screenplay will be available on Nov. 19, the day after Fantastic Beasts premieres in theaters. It's currently available for pre-order.
