J.K. Rowling Reveals US Version Of Hogwarts

J.K. Rowling has hinted a US version of Hogwarts will feature in 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'.

The 'Harry Potter' author is currently penning the screenplay for the spin-off movie and has teased an American wizarding school may be featured in the movie, which will star Eddie Redmayne as protagonist, magizoologist Newt Scamander.

In an ad hoc Q&A session on Twitter, she was asked the name of the ''US school'' and replied saying: ''That information will be revealed in due course.''

Following the admission, fans of the series of books and films attempted to find out more information, although the best-selling writer remained secretive about the details.

When asked by a fan if Newt will visit a New York wizarding school, she wrote: ''No, but he's going to meet people who were educated at [name] in [not New York]. (sic)''

Another user asked whether the school would ''have any relevance to the Native American-Indian culture'' to which she wrote: ''If I answer that fully it will reveal the location of the school, but you can take that as a yes! (sic)''

Following further messages on the social networking site, the 49-year-old author - who has racked up 4.75 million followers - revealed ''indigenous magic'' will have played a key part in the school's creation.

She added: ''Oh wait - did you mean the NAME is of American Indian origin? It isn't. The name is of immigrant origin.

''However, indigenous magic was important in the founding of the school. If I say which tribes, location is revealed. (sic)''
