Twitter’s Glorious Reaction to Jude Law Dumbledore Casting
It’s been roughly five hours since news dropped that Jude Law has been cast as Albus Dumbledore in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them sequel.
As usual, Twitter is the best place to find real-time reactions to any news. Obligingly, Twitter did not disappoint after the casting bombshell.
Some were ecstatic:

I'm fine with Jude Law as Dumbledore. It's trying to believe that Jude Law would want to bang Johnny Depp that throws it all off.

I'm not sure how I feel about Jude Law playing Dumbledore because I'm fairly certain I don't want to be attracted to Albus but I will

There are already earnest fan edits of Jude Law as Dumbledore on my Tumblr dash, how am I supposed to process this.
