The stage play is currently a cash cow. I'm guessing it will eventually be turned into a couple movies followed by a new film series about the Potter children or even a reboot of the entire series.
The prequels have shown that despite being a talented writer, Rowling is out of her element with screen plays. The first one was a total mess but was at least entertaining and did a good job setting up Newt and the prequel world. The 2nd didn't learn anything from this and doubled down on the mess.
Instead of trying to create this epic connected prequel world I would have preferred stand alone stories about Newt, or Dumbledore, or Grindelwald with loose connections to each other and the originals.
