As if news about "Goblet of Fire."

Mike Newell's entry in the franchise is the "Potter" flick most similar to "Beasts."

"['Fantastic Beasts' has] got the charm of the fourth," Heyman told EW. " ... [I]t's got the humor of that film. It has the romantic comedy, that fish-out-of-water humor, that very human, natural character comedy."

But if fans are expecting an all-laughter, all the time experience, they'll be disappointed. As Heyman explained to EW, "Beasts" director David Yates has plans to balance the lighter themes with heavier ones.

" ... David is always looking for truthful, human moments, it's never just a gag, he's grounding [the storytelling moments] in a reality," Heyman said. "['Beasts'] is very funny, it's got a big heart, and there's darkness too."

Sounds spectacular.

"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is due in theaters on November 18, 2016.
