Quote:
In a new interview with Rotten Tomatoes, Prisoner of Azkaban director Alfonso Cuaron says that he would be "very tempted" to direct Deathly Hallows:

I feel a little bit like I have to try to do the films that are not going to exist without me. On the same token, I would be really tempted because it was really beautiful. I just started reading the last book and something I respect is the care the producers have put in the film franchise. It would have been so easy after the success of the series just to take the cynical approach of knowing that no matter what people are going to see those movies. Actually they've been taking a lot of care from beginning to end, so yeah I would be really tempted.

Read the full interview at this link. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!


i hope this happens. PoA was my favourite movie. The way it showed the Whomping Willow in each season was cool. What would you think of him directing DH?

According to this http://www.rupertgrint.net/images/ew%20hpspecial%20001.jpg , sounds like Yates will be director. Shocked Mad

Prisioner of Azkaban was the MOST popular movie out of all the HP next to OoTP, so it obviously showed Cuaron did VERY good job with HP. I don't know, he just put something in the movie that took you into the actual HP universe, it's my personal favorite....

Cuaron all the way!!

oh i hope so! cuaron is really good! yates was good as well, but i wasnt that impressed with the battle scene... there was no battle scene in poa, but maybe cuaron will do well. just as long as it isnt the director of GOF...

I think the third movie was probably the worst, although I'm not sure...the fifth movie was pretty far from the book.

Oh please no, don't ever let that man near a Harry Potter movie again. He utterly destroyed the series, and made my favorite book into my least favorite move.

I couldn't believe what he had done....say it ain't so joe, say it ain't so.

Sorry, I didn't like him much either - but Curion is the guy who screwed the series, they really need to bring Chris Columbus back to save the series.

OMG! Alfonso Cuaran was the beeeeeeeest! PoA was my favorite movie. I really hope he does DH. That would rock. I liked Chris Columbus too. Smile

I loved PoA too, so I wouldn't mind him directing this one, but I doubt he will.

I don't know, I don't mind Yates. I guess we will see though when HBP comes out in '08 and then I will make the final choice there.

I didn't like POA either though. The way they portrayed Sirius was ridiculous, and the werwolf looked lame. I really do NOT like him as director, but then again it could be that from CoS on I haven't liked the movies too much, I hate the guy playing DD right now.

Unfortunatly the guy who was playing Dumbledore died....If you want to see him again rent Camelot he plays Merlin.

But I agree with the above about POA, but what upset me most was how the directed litterly destroyed the Trio, he made them into annoying people - the one good thing he did was draw Harry and Hermione alittle closer together, but besides that he was useless.
