In case you aren't a Harry Potter nerd (like me). They have started releasing the first set pictures and plot details for the upcoming "Fantastic Beasts" movies which take place in the Harry Potter Universe. The first film starts out in 1920s NYC. Here is the basic plot - http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/04/fantastic-beasts

"Eccentric magizoologist Newt Scamander (Oscar winner Eddie Redmayne) comes to New York (for a reason we won’t disclose) with his trusty weathered case. This case is one of those way-way-way-bigger-on-the-inside magical devices, and within are expansive habitats for a collection of rare and endangered magical creatures from Newt’s travels around globe. He discovers the American wizarding community is fearfully hiding from Muggles (who are called “No-Maj” in the States, more on that here) and the threat of public exposure is an even graver concern than in the UK (remember the Salem witch trials?). Fantastic Beasts is the story of what happens when this uniquely skilled English wizard travels to wiz-phobic America and a variety of his creatures, some quite dangerous … get out of their case."

"Scamander, his pivotal briefcase in hand, standing inside the entrance of the majestic art deco-influenced Magical Congress of the United States of America (or MACUSA), which is the American version of the Ministry of Magic that’s housed inside the Woolworth Building in the film. "

Any thoughts on Newt and his magic animals coming to Universal?

If this movie is a succes, I can't imagine it not having some kind of presence in the Universal Parks.
