(The Morning Watchis a recurring feature that highlights a handful of noteworthy videos from around the web. They could be video essays, fanmade productions, featurettes, short films, hilarious sketches, or just anything that has to do with our favorite movies and TV shows.)
In this edition, seePatton Oswalt, Nick Offerman, Aubrey Plazaand more audition for the role of a young Albus Dumbledore in theFantastic Beasts and Where to Find Themsequel before Jude Law got the role. Find out what a crossover betweenArcherandBob’s Burgersmight look like in a different way than fans have seen before, and see how the cast ofBaby Driverfares in movie trivia against their directorEdgar Wright.
First up, see all the various interpretations of what a young Albus Dumbledore could be like inFantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2,which is currently in productionin London. Conan O’Brien was able to get ahold of the secret audition tape from Warner Bros. Pictures for one of his Comic-Con themed shows last week, and it’s clear that this is going to be a side of Dumbledore that no one has seen before.
Just recently, another edition of The Morning Watch showed the agents ofKingsman: The Secret Servicecoming into the spy world ofArcher. Now art director Simon Chong (viaUproxx) has taken the time to imagine what it would be like if the characters ofArcherhad a crossover withBob’s Burgersin a way much different than their previous crossover. But rather than just having the same character design as they do inArcher, all the characters have been given makeovers created in the animation style ofBob’s Burgers. Honestly, this should be a legitimate episode.
Finally, around the timeBaby Driverwas getting released over a month ago,The AV Clubsat down with writer/director Edgar Wright as well as cast membersAnsel Elgort, Jon HammandEiza Gonzalezfor an interview that turned into a movie trivia contest between the quartet. How does the cast fare against the titan of movie trivia who is Edgar Wright? You’ll have to watch to find out.
