Newsweek goes into some detail on the current filming schedule as well as what it is like on the Potter set right now.
In the report
, director Alfonso Cuaron jokingly says:
Lots of nudity. And lots of sex. You just have to let it flow."
You don't need to encourage it. You allow it to be. And believe me, they have a lot of it."
As for the future:
Radcliffe says he'll be riding the Nimbus 2000 in the fourth movie, The Goblet of Fire, and it appears that his young costars, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, will join him. Beyond that, they still have to ask Mom and Dad. "We're optimistic," producer David Heyman says, "but it's early."
From the report it sounds like all is going well. Don't forget to listen to the audio segment.

“Rowling’s sequels have a knack for getting better." - I agree that the movies and books are getting better
Cuaron visual-effects team worked worded six months on the dementors. WOW! Can't wait to see these. What other things the Visual team has done.
“Under British law, child actors can work only four hours a day.)” - No wonder it’s taking so long to make.

parvatiPatil89 My guess is this is the scene at the end of the book when they are by the lake, surrounded by dementors, and Harry has to cast his patronus. I dont see his wand though.

A very exciting article, it just makes me want to see it more! They spent six months on the Dementors! Sounds like Alfonso Cuaron is really making an effort to do this right.

Rissa- I caught that too, but you beat me to the post! Oh well. It's going to be really cool to see another director's take on the films. I'm glad they're making out the movie to be more "mature", rather than trying to sugar-coat things to market to little kids. Can't wait!

I reckon the pics from when they've used the time turner!There're probably hiding at the edge of the forest or something.Fail to see why he's hugging her though.

The "hugging" might be his attempt at protecting her from the dementors, but that's purely speculation on my part.
This quote: Radcliffe says he’ll be riding the Nimbus 2000 in the fourth movie, “The Goblet of Fire,” and it appears that his young costars, Watson and Rupert Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, will join him. Beyond that, they still have to ask Mom and Dad. -- I don't know if that's an error on the reporter's part with regards to the broom, but I guess this is confirmation that the trio will be in the fourth movie...?
It's a shame that Cuaron's already decided to not continue on directing before the audience take in what he's done with this movie, but no doubt his predecessors will do just as well. Although, quite frankly, I don't want Columbus to do it. Sorry.

I dont think hes really hugging her, its really more just protecting her, they both look really freaked out in the picture though... but if it was during the time turner deal... why dont they have the school robes on? Oh well I really liked this article and I'm glad they had a few pictures! :-) I cant wait for the movie to come out!!!

Yeah i think that the photo can have been taken when Harry "fights" the dementors over the lake.
And I wonder too about their clothes. But remember that when Harry, Ron and Hermione went through the trapdoor in the PS movie, they didn't wear school robes too !!
But maybe it's just a photo during a rehearsal of the scene.
And mark that Daniel wears the same sweater as in the Knight bus scene.

Yeah...I agree with ravenskylark28. Society is very weird. When I first saw that picture I was mainly wondering where I have seen that sweater that he's wearing before and not why he was hugging/protecting her. So thank you, Fleur D, for clearing that up. But anyways we still have 11 months, 1 week, and 1 day til the movie comes out. (Hmm...lots of 1's in that sentence) One last thing...I WANT TO SEE A PIC OF THE DEMENTORS!! Well I guess they're going to keep that a closely gaurded secret. Hmph.

Wow! Very interesting. I am not sure about the part he "re-makes" DD into an old hippie. That has me a bit worried. BUT it sounds like Columbus is making sure that the three work together, and Emma sounds like she is having more fun. I can't wait to see ti.

Sounds fantastic! I hope the movie lives up to the book...I did enjoy the pictures. But about the Nimbus 2000, I think that's just where the author of this article hasn't actually read the books...that or just forgot, but seems like kind of a big thing to forget, eh? Maybe that was for the people who haven't read the 3rd book yet and don't know about the Firebolt... I can't wait to see Hogsmeade or the Dementors!!!

I was just thinking... (sorry for double posting...) but the picture might be from the time turner scene because they were both in the hospital wing so maybe they took off their school robes or something. But I remember reading that Hermione took the time turner out of her robes... ha oh well it doesnt matter!! We'll find out June 4th!

Great article and picture! That was a great tibit...and good to hear it souns like the trio will be in Goblet. The sex joke made me laugh out-loud. It sounds like they are having a lot of fun on the set...creative. Man, this next year waiting for the movie is going to be nerve wracking, lol. It looks like they are letting Emma go with more of her natural hair this time...not as long and full. She definately is physically changing from the first two movies. I can just see Dan there absently playing with his wand...bad boy though, actors rule: don't play with props! Nope, i didn't pop the rubber ball back stage during opera Albert Herring....

eudaemonia- I'm pretty sure that when they say "Radcliffe says he’ll be riding the Nimbus 2000 in the fourth movie, 'The Goblet of Fire,' and it appears that his young costars, Watson and Rupert Grint, who plays Ron Weasley, will join him. Beyond that, they still have to ask Mom and Dad" That what they mean is that they have signed on to be in the movie but after GoF they will have to ask Mom and Dad if they can continue.

I haven't seen any real pictures though. All the ones I have seen of the "dementors" are fake...they look fairly close to the ringwraiths from LOTR.

Imperio!: Thanks for the clarification, but I read that and I understood. I was just trying to point to it since no one seemed to notice. I would've thought the trio-backers would be whooping w/ joy but all I read were comments about the "hug". However the headline has changed to reflect this now.

I just can't wait to see the finished product. I just wish Cuaron would keep his political comments to himself; I don't need to know how he feels about Bush, Blair or anyone else. He's there to direct a movie not give political commentary.
