Years after the Harry Potter series came to an end, our favorite authoress is still offering us insight into the magical world and the characters we love.

One such character is the embodiment of wisdom — Albus Dumbledore.

We have now gotten to know a different side to the Hogwarts headmaster as Jude Law portrays a younger version in the Fantastic Beasts series which also stars the evil object of his affection, Gellert Grindelwald.

In a featurette for the Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald DVD, J.K. Rowling shared her take on the relationship between the two characters she created.

“Their relationship was incredibly intense. It was passionate, and it was a love relationship,” she said. “But as happens in any relationship, gay or straight or whatever label we want to put on it, one never knows, really, what the other person is feeling. You can’t know, you can believe you know. So I’m less interested in the sexual side — though I believe there is a sexual dimension to this relationship — than I am in the sense of the emotions they felt for each other, which ultimately is the most fascinating thing about all human relationships.”

If only it hadn’t all ended so badly…

Lin-Manuel Miranda is once again donning his waistcoat and tails.

After two and a half years, the creator of the hit musical Hamilton is reprising his role as the show’s lead in Puerto Rico.

The multiple Tony award winner is staging a three-week residency in the territory, which is situated in the Caribbean.

Lin-Manuel himself is of Puerto Rican descent and told CBS News following the musical’s premiere on Friday, “I just love this island so much. And I just want it to be proud of me. Today Puerto Rico gave me more energy than ever in my life in that moment. I have never felt anything like that.”

Opening night was attended by talk show host Jimmy Fallon, Grey’s Anatomy creator Shonda Rhimes, and author Ron Chernow, who penned the biography of Alexander Hamilton that inspired Lin-Manuel to write the musical.

Hamilton’s Puerto Rico residency will raise $15 million for the Flamboyan Arts Fund, which was established by the Miranda family to aid arts organisations.

Just you wait!

Almost Famous already has an Oscar — and now it’s vying for a Tony!

The semi-autobiographical story by director Cameron Crowe, about a teenage Rolling Stones journalist who goes on tour with a rock band, has been regarded as a cult classic since it was released in 2000.

Crowe wrote the script based on his own experiences touring with rock bands Poco, the Allman Brothers Band, Led Zeppelin, Eagles, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, and won an Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay.

Producers have now announced that the film starring Kate Hudson, Billy Crudup, and Patrick Fugit will be heading to Broadway.

Crowe will write the script and co-write the lyrics with Tony-winning composer, Tom Kitt, who will write the original score. Jeremy Herrin of Wolf Hall has signed on to direct the production.

You would be forgiven for forgetting that Justin Timberlake is a musician with all his new ventures.

The 37-year-old recently created a game show concept involving a gigantic wheel and lots and lots of money which has been commissioned by Fox.

And now, the Filthy singer is getting set to say something as he will be penning a book.

Hindsight & All the Things I Can’t See in Front of Me will be a collection of anecdotes, reflections, and observations on his life and work, as well as personal, never-before-scene photographs.

“I can’t help that my music shows who I am in this moment, what I’m drawn to, what I’m wondering about. I don’t want to help it. What you hear in the words, what you feel in those songs — that’s what I was feeling when I wrote them. I want you to see me, just like I want to see you,” Justin said through his publisher, Harper Collins.

The book is expected to divulge aspects of his childhood, years with N*Sync, occasions as an actor, and the encounters leading up to the present day where he has just released his 5th solo studio album.

Hindsight will hit shelves on the 30th of October.

Many people know Dolly Parton for her signature blonde hair and southern accent, but how many know that she has a non-profit organization which aids children.

Imagination Library was started more than 20 years ago and mails one book per month to each enrolled child from the time of their birth until they enter kindergarten.

Over 1,600 local communities provide the Imagination Library to almost 850,000 children across the U.S., Canada, the UK, and Australia.

The 9 to 5 singer established the organization in honor of her father who could not read.

This year, the 72-year-old accomplished quite an impressive achievement by donating the 100 millionth book.

The Library of Congress acknowledged the milestone during an event attended by both adults and children.

“Of all the things I’ve done in my life, and it’s been a lot ’cause I’ve been around a long time, this is one of the most precious things and the proudest I am of any program,” Dolly told the audience.

Sir David Attenborough has launched the UK’s newest polar ship.

The national treasure has launched the ship, which is named after him, into the River Mersey in Birkenhead The £200m Attenborough boat will replace two ships currently circulating the icecaps and will be crucially used for research and logistics. It is equipped with all the latest scientific gear, including a helipad, cranes and onboard lab.

Attenborough has said that it is “the greatest possible honor” to have such an important ship named after him. He believes that the work the ship will do will be extremely important in shaping our future.

“Our future will be affected by what people working on this ship will be discovering in years to come,” he said.

“When 100 years ago this country sent people down to the South Pole, we were the pioneers in exploring the Antarctic,” he continued.

“When we did so, I suspect the reason we did was the South Pole seemed as far away as it could possibly get to be on this planet.

“Now, 100 years later, we realize that remote place is, in fact, key to the whole understanding of the planet. What goes on down there affects the whole of the Earth.”

According to Robert Galbraith’s Twitter account, the next installment in the Corcoran Strike book series, rather aptly titled Lethal White, will be released on 18 September this year. The book will follow the three previously published books – The Cuckoo’s Calling, The Silkworm and Career of Evil – and their story of a private investigator Corcoran Strike and his attempts to solve mysteries alongside his assistant, Robin Ellacoat.

Lethal White will follow the pair as they unravel the mysteries surrounding a crime witnessed by Billy, a troubled young man. According to Little, Brown, the book’s publisher, the story is full of twists, some of which will involve London’s backstreets and a secret location inside the British Parliament.

Along with a striking green cover of the book, the author also announced that the books can now be pre-ordered.
