Fantastic Beasts: Eulalie Hicks’ Backstory and How She Met Dumbledore Revealed

Jessica Williams is a true force as Eulalie Hicks in Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore. Her character was first introduced in film two, The Crimes of Grindelwald, but only via the briefest of cameos. In The Secrets of Dumbledore, however, she is an essential member of Albus Dumbledore’s (Jude Law) team and commands the screen in every single scene she’s in. The Secrets of Dumbledore sees Mads Mikkelsen’s Gellert Grindelwald making moves to take over the Wizarding World. There’s only one way to stop him and it demands that Dumbledore put together a team with a wide variety of specialties and skills like Newt Scamander’s work as a Magizoologist and Williams’ Lally who is one of the best of the best when it comes to defensive magic. One of Lally’s most striking qualities in Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is that the moment she appears on screen, she’s absolutely oozing with an invigorating tenacity. That quality carries through the rest of the film, making Lally a character who’s especially easy to root for and believe in. During our Collider Ladies Night interview about her career thus far and her experience joining the Wizarding World, I asked Williams where Lally’s strength and confidence come from.
