9 Reveals From Our 'Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald' Set Visit10 of 11
France's Answer to the Ministry
The British Ministry of Magic is well-known to Harry Potter fans and the first Fantastic Beasts movie introduced audiences to the American equivalent, Macusa. But in the upcoming movie, we enter the world of the Ministry for Magic Affairs of France (Le Ministère des Affaires Magiques de la France).
One of the more impressive sets we visited, it is set beneath the streets of Paris but with a magical glass roof. Around these offices patrol feline Matagots, which resemble a hairless Sphinx cat. They mainly do menial jobs, including staffing the mailroom and providing security for various other departments. But, if provoked, they will transform into something far more menacing.
