Mads Mikkelsen on Replacing Johnny Depp in ‘Fantastic Beasts 3’: “You Have to Make It Your Own”

By Adam Chitwood

It’s not entirely common for one actor to take over a role for another actor, and it’s certainly more of a challenge when that role is tied to one of the most popular franchises in the world. But that’s the task ahead of Mads Mikkelsen as it relates to Fantastic Beasts 3, as the Another Round actor signed on to take over the main role of Gellert Grindelwald from Johnny Depp who stepped down from the franchise.

Mikkelsen is no stranger to franchise filmmaking having appeared in Marvel’s Doctor Strange, the Star Wars prequel Rogue One, and of course the excellent Bond film Casino Royale, but with Fantastic Beasts 3 he’s stepping into a role that Depp originated in the previous two films. However, when speaking with Collider’s Christina Radish about the challenge, he explained that he needed to develop his own take on Grindelwald:

“Nobody’s interested in me going in there and trying to copy anything, that would be creative suicide immediately, especially when it’s been done before and masterfully. So everybody’s expecting us to find a different path. Having said that, we need a bridge between what he did and what I’m gonna do, so those bridges you have to find together, whether it’s a certain look, whether it’s a certain attitude in certain situations, but you have to make it your own. Anything else would be plainly just creatively stupid.”
