Proof That Eddie Redmanye Really Is Newt Scamander

Really, they're just one and the same

Proof That Eddie Redmanye Really Is Newt Scamander
ABC News

So I've been Harry Potter obsessed for as long as I can remember. So much so, that when The Deathly Hallows Part 2 ended, I had to be dragged out of the theater. I didn't want to leave because I didn't want it to be over. But all good things have to come to an end, right? WRONG! J.K. Rowling has blessed us with so much more, whether it be small posts on Pottermore, The Cursed Child, or even simple tweets. I am forever grateful for this woman and the world she created where we can all escape to. And here she's done it again with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. When I first heard that this was being made into a film, I cried a bit. We were going to have another movie filled with the magic we loved. But then, it was announced that we weren't only going to have one movie, BUT FIVE. Greatest news ever. The only problem now was finding the perfect Newt Scamander. They finally settled on Eddie Redmayne, and after seeing the movie (WHICH WAS SO GOOD- IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET THEN YOU DEFINITELY SHOULD), I can agree that Eddie is the perfect Newt. So to test this case, here's ten times he proved it...

1. When he was asked to give his best pick-up line and he gave us this...

2. When he discussed with Ellen that he didn't really care that he thought he only signed a contract for one movie...

3. When he wanted to take a picture but needed better lighting

4. When he took said picture, and then had the best response

5. When he showed that he's a proud Hufflepuff

6. When he explained the film and how magical Jo is

7. When a fan gave him a Bowtruckle and it was the greatest thing to ever happen to him

8. When he showed that he was just as Harry Potter obsessed as the rest of us

9. When he had the same reaction that we all would have when he got his wand

10. And finally, when he sent out a PSA on why Hufflepuffs really do deserve more credit...

Newt is beautifully awkward. Eddie is beautifully awkward. Good job casting directors.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
