Thousands of girls lined up to audition in east London on Saturday for a chance to co-star in the planned Harry Potter spin-off movie “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them”. Movie group Warner Brothers and the film makers are looking for a girl aged between eight and 12 to take on the role of Modesty–a character they describe as “a haunted young girl with an inner strength and stillness”. The film will be set in New York, about seventy years before the original Harry Potter series began. Hoping to become the next Emma Watson, eleven-year-old Holly said she had taken the audition seriously and prepared for it thoroughly.
