Yes, we KNOW.

Launching the logo on social media sites including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr, the new graphic was accompanied by the message "Prepare yourself for the beasts are coming…."

Fans have also been given a glimpse into the secrets behind the logo in an interview with one of the design team on the Pottermore website.

"And that’s exciting," they added. "It’s part of the fun and we’re fans too.

"The logo is a blend of beasts, it’s not just one takeaway. When we arrived on idea for the ’S’ it excited us. So we thought there must be a way to accent these other letters with claws or ribs — hints to other beasts, while this one is the logo’s centrepiece."

Filming for the first chapter in J.K. Rowling's novel began shooting back in August, with Eddie Redmayne starring as the film's magical creature expert, Newt Scamander.
