The upcoming "Harry Potter" film "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" keeps looking better and better.

Ahead of the panel at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Warner Bros. released a new poster for the film on the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" Twitter account.

It stars Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne as magizoologist Newt Scamander. In the background, 1920s New York City rises around him and the emblem for the Magical Congress of the United States sits above his head. There’s even a little animal trying to get out of his magical suitcase.

What’s even more interesting are the snapshots of his fellow stars on the side. On the left hand column are Katherine Waterston as a MACUSA employee (and potential love interest) named Porpentina "Tina" Goldstein, Dan Fogler as the bumbling No-Maj Jacob Kowalski, and Samantha Morton as the scary Mary Lou, who we know is the leader of a group called the Second Salemers.

On the right hand side is Colin Farrell as the auror Graves, Alison Sudol as Tina's sister Queenie Goldstein, and finally Ezra Miller as Credence, Mary Lou’s adopted son.

As Entertainment Weekly points out, this is the first time fans are seeing Mary Lou and her mysterious son Credence in the movie. Previously, we’ve only known about the Second Salemers, a dangerous No-Maj group who want to destroy magic, witches, and wizards at all costs. This is our first glimpse of the likely antagonists of the film in character (as well as their straight-edge bangs).

Apart from the Second Salemers, the movie will follow Newt Scamander (the author behind one of Harry's textbooks), as he visits New York City in 1926. He comes to NYC from London with a briefcase full of magical creatures.

The problem? Some of the creatures wind up getting loose and biting a No-Maj, and it's up to Scamander to get them back.

"Fantastic Beasts" will be in theaters in November, and Warner Bros. will be taking over Hall H this Saturday at San Diego's Comic-Con at 11:30 a.m. PT.
