At last nights Empire Awards ceremony
, Harry Potter producer David Heyman spoke about Order of the Phoenix filming, Jason Isaacs voiced his hope that he would be back and Daniel Radcliffe went against the grain & stated that the fifth book is actually one of his favorites: "The third and the fifth are my favourites, which is a very uncommonly held opinion."
David on what has actually been filmed to date and how long filming will take:
We've done a little bit of action so far. We've done some stuff involving centaurs and Grawp, who is Hagrid's 16ft brother. The kids have to act against a lot of blue screen for characters like Grawp, but thankfully, they're used to that by now.
We're actually shooting until the middle of May and then we break up for two months so the kids can do exams. Then we pick up in July and we shoot until October or November.
Jason discusses his wish to remain with the series:
I hope so - you'll have to ask David. I can't bear the idea that somebody else would get to wear my Paris Hilton wig, but you never know.
Daniel gives his take on the fifth book:
I think the problem is that Harry can bee seen to come across as quite petulant in the book, and I don't actually think that's the case. I think when JK Rowling puts things in capital letters I don't think that necessarily means he's shouting. It could just refer to the sort of energy behind what he's saying. I think that's one of things that people object to about the book, is that they don't want a manic-depressive superhero.
Also thanks to Paul for letting us know that you can see a transcript and video (can take a while to load in Quicktime) of the acceptance speech of David and the trio.
UPDATE: Additionally, BBC Radio 1 reports that today Dan will be filming the kissing scene with Cho Chang, in which he says: "It'll be odd because one of my parents will be on set." Click here to read what the young actor plans to do about it. Thanks to Cristal for the tip.

Grawp will be in the film then, that's good. Looks like they've done a lot of the forest bits done filming.

Okay, now I'm curious to see how Dan's gonna play Harry in this one. When I read capital letters, I just hear shouting, so now I can't wait to see how he's gonna do this (not that I'm not looking forward to the movie anyway)

"You don't want to bottle your anger up like that, Harry, let it all out," said Fred, beaming. "There might be a couple people fifty miles away who didn't hear you."
Erm, sorry Dan. That sounds rather indicative of shouting to me.

Uncommonly against the grain? The fifth book was my favorite book also. Dan, we have the same brain!! We should meet. But my favorite was OoTP, then GoF, then PoA, then HBP, then CoS, and finally, my least favorite, SS. I love the pictures from the awards, Emma is so beautiful, and Rupert, so hot.

I think they really deserve this award. They have worked so hard and so long, it has to be great when you finally got rewarded for all that work. My favorite book is the fifth too, and then comes the third, the sixth, the fourth, the second and the first. I think this movie will take less time to film, isn't it?

I'm so excited for OotP! I am actually suprised that they decided to include the Grawp scenes to tell you the truth. I just hope that by putting in those scenes, it won't take away from the important things that should very much be included.

SCE2AUX, say that to the scriptwriter, or the director, they decide that.
Catfish on the table, all that is great, thanks for telling us!
So yesterday Dan was in London, and today he was in Oxford, when did he sleep? :S

HarryPotter_Lover101, maybe the scriptwriter doesn't agree with that, and that's the reason Dan explain that in the movie maybe it won't be like that. It just depends on what the director and the script say.

I guess if JK just wanted to "refer to the sort of energy behind what he's saying" she would describe the way his words sounded like. If she wrote it in capital letters it means that Harry was shouting!

Help, I can't remember who Jason Isaacs plays! Is it Lucius?
HP&StarW, I'm sure they'll have the thestrals in, they're rather important at the end, when the students ride them to the MOM.

Ok, that's your opinion, but if Dan and David say that it's because the script says that. So we will have to wait and see what the scripwriter says, and the new director too, and to know why they don't want Harry to be shouting.
