J.K. Rowling is writing scripts for Warner Brothers for a trilogy of Harry Potter spinoff films based on Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them; the first will be set in 1920s USA and released next year:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3183660/
Interesting idea, if they don't mess it up, but I suspect they will.
And more horrifying than anything else - William Shatner is going to narrate the Clangers for the USA.
