Or will it once again, like in theHarry Potterfilms, not be addressed?
Not explicitly, Yates replied when asked if the film makes it clear that Dumbledore is gay.
But I think all the fans are aware of that.

Jaap Buitendijk/Warner Bros.
He had a very intense relationship with Grindelwald when they were young men.
They fell in love with each others ideas, and ideology and each other.
Hes witty and has a bit of edge.
Hes not this elder statesman.
Hes a really kinetic guy.
And opposite Johnny Depp as Grindelwald, they make an incredible pairing.
All of this isnt to say that Dumbledores sexuality wonteventuallybe addressed in the three additionalFantastic Beastssequels planned afterCrimes.
In fact, screenwriter and Harry Potter creator Rowling has previously hinted that it will be at some point.
As far as his sexuality is concerned … watch this space.
The Crimes of Grindelwaldwill be released on Nov. 16, 2018.
