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.

Ha! so there's the reason that Radcliffe likes OotP...cause of the kissing scene!! hehe i'm just joking, but I feel bad that the guy has to have his parents there.
HOpe jason issacs makes a comeback. he's been very good at the part, and deserves to get it back.
Ooooh, I can't wait to get some pictures from the filming! let alone some clips!

It seems odd that of all the things they are going to have to cut for the fifth film, thay they are going to leave in the stuff about Grawp. That makes me think that perhaps he will have a larger role to play in the seventh book. Hmm.
Funny funny Jason Isaacs on the Paris Hilton joke.
I literally laughed out loud on Dan's plan to continue messing up the kissing scene so he can do it repeatedly. Haha.

OOTP is sounding like it will be fantastic. I'm glad they have Gawp in there, as it makes you think that Hagrid may not have a good ending....
And I do hope they keep all the same actors for all the films. I don't think anyone could do Malfoy as good as Jason Isaacs. He does those nasty characters brilliantly. (he also made a brilliant "Capt Hook" in Peter Pan - any obsessed fans should pause the movie around 25mins in - you'll see what I mean)
I can't wait! I'll keep checking back and waiting for set pics to be released/uploaded. :D

Oh man!!! I can't wait until the OotP comes out now!!! I sure do hope that they are going to do what they say they're going to do and shoot parts including the summer and most of the rest of the movie. I am not too excited about the kissing scene though.... Stay off my Day Katie! Just kidding!

Dans quote:

Um, sorry Dan bur for me ->
CAPITAL LETTERs + "energy" = screaming.
He wouldn't be chucking Dumbledores things against the wall; destroying his office if it was just a bunch of "energy" (anger grr) Harry was expressing. Luckily caps-lock Harry matures in that sense a bit by HBP... :)
Just my thoughts.

Holy sumshy cow!!! I can't believe they're actually going to introduce Grawp in the movie!!! I'm so exited. Luckily they'll put a whole lot of D.A. meetongs and the Weasley is Our King stuff( that means Quidditch), lots of R/Hr moments and Fred and George's departure.

Well, Radcliffe is not alone against the grain; PoA and OotP are my favorites in the series as well;) I hope that Isaacs will play in this movie as well, and I wonder how Grawp will look like. I hope the director will be able to handle OotP, it out of necessity has to be good.
