The final Harry Potter book released in 2007, and since then, JK Rowling has revealed a lot more information about the wizardly world and its characters via Twitter and her Pottermore website. Now, she's revealed the Hogwarts headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, to be her favourite character--other than Harry, of course.

JK Rowling revealed the answer on Twitter when a fan asked her, "Besides Harry, who is your favorite character in the series?" She was tweeting about Dumbledore's relationship with Fantastic Beast's protagonist, Newt Scamander, at the time.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is the next movie in the Harry Potter universe, and the latest trailer mentions Dumbledore as a character who was "so fond" of Scamander. You can watch it for yourself right here.
