Stephen Fry, who narrated the UK Harry Potter audiobooks, will embark on a fantastical journey across the world in the BBC One special, aired in the UK on BBC One and iPlayer, and HBO Max.
In a unique collaboration with the BBC Natural History Unit, the Natural History Museum (who hosted the exhibition, Fantastic Beasts: The Wonder of Nature) and Warner Bros., unfurls all sorts of mysteries around fantastic beasts and real-life creatures across history that you may not believe could possibly exist.
In the documentary series, the host also chats with Wizarding World’s creator, J.K.
