The standout star from the Harry Potter spinoff movie, ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ is undoubtedly the coin-stealing creature, Niffler.

Nifflers have a long snout with fluffy fur that is attracted to shiny things, making them a gem (pun intended) to sniff out treasures, but not so much of a help when you need them to stay focused. Just look at the hilarious scene between Newt (Eddie Redmayne) and his mischevious Niffler!

In Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Newt will have to not only battle with 1 Niffler, but a bunch of baby Nifflers, as reported by EW. They are as mischevious as their parents, so expect some funny moments from the sequel in November!

EW also released a concept art photo of the baby Niffler, that come in different colours other than the classic black.

Other new beasts in the film include the Kelpie (a sea serpent-like underwater creature that can shapeshift ), a Leucrotta (a magical beast that resembled a moose) and an Augurey (an Irish Phoenix mournful-looking bird that hunts for fairies and insects during downpours).

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald opens InCinemas 15 November 2018!
