JK Rowling has defended casting an Asian actress as Nagini, the snake-like creature belonging to Harry Potter's nemesis Voldemort, in the latest Fantastic Beasts film.

 

The franchise, which tells the story of Newt Scamander, is a spin-off and prequel to the Harry Potter stories.

 

Nagini featured in the Harry Potter books and until now, fans had believed the character was simply a snake (albeit one that had magical powers - about as average as you get in the Wizarding World).

 

But now, the final trailer for Fantastic Beasts: Crimes Of Grindelwald has revealed that Nagini was once a woman - played by South Korean actress Claudia Kim.
