The author was conducted a Q+A session on Twitter and was asked by one fan asked whether the main protagonist, Newt Scamander would be visiting a school in New York as part of the film's plot and what its name would be, reported Guradian.
Rowling said she is never one to give away plot spoilers, saying 'that information will be revealed in due course'.
However, she added, "No, but he's going to meet people who were educated at (name) in (not New York)." She was asked by another fan whether the school would have any links to Native American-Indian culture, she wrote: "If I answer that fully it will reveal the location of the school, but you can take that as a yes!"

Rowling herself is currently putting the final touches to the screenplay, and the movie itself has a scheduled release date of November 18, 2016.
