So, someone’s probably bound to have covered this already, but a while back, Pottermore came out with a timeline of famous witches and wizards and their contributions to wizarding society. We get all the normal guys and gals and a few random, funny bits, but then you get to Newt Scamander, who is obviously the next big obsession for all of us.

That timeline lists births, deaths, and most famous contribution.

Newt Scamander does not have a death date listed, so as of the 17-year window after the Battle of Hogwarts, I’m assuming he’s still bopping around his cottage somewhere, mumbling about nargles and hippogriffs.

So, and I hope it’s not just me, but I hope that at the end of our wonderful little spinoff… Newt looks up from his tea to see his grandson’s lovely wife, Luna, his grandson Rolf, and the trio of friends she’s brought over walk into his house (because Luna would obviously bring a big group of friends to her grandfather-in-law’s house on a whim), some such group with one tousle-haired dude they keep calling Harry who looks like he’s never seen a comb in his life.

I have visited lairs, burrows and nests across five continents, observed the curious habits of magical beasts in a hundred countries, witnessed their powers, gained their trust and, on occasion, beaten them off with my travelling kettle.
