Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald

Tom Riddle (Lord Voldemort) is estimated to be less than a year old when this movie takes place. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002), which takes place in 1992, the Chamber is said to have been opened 50 years prior, i.e. in 1942. It is also said that Tom Riddle turned 16 that same year, so he must have been born in 1926. Since this movie is set in 1927, Tom would be one year old by the end of that year.

According to the books and Pottermore.com (site created by JK Rowling herself), Minerva McGonagall was born in 1935 and first started teaching at Hogwarts in 1956, when she was 21 years old. Even though the movie is set in 1927, eight years before her birth, she appears as a young professor in Hogwarts.

There are no mid- or end-credit scenes.

An extended cut runs ~7 minutes longer.
