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.

Haha, I love Jason Isaacs. That was a hilarious comment but really his Lucius hair is way hotter than Paris' mop. We definately have to have him back!

I am sooo glad they are putting in Grawp and the Centaurs scene! The fifth book is my all time favorite. I hope Daniel does him justice and that Emma tones down Hermione a little bit.

The fifth is one of my favourite too. Right after the sixth one.
Jason Isaac said that he hope he'd back? So do I! One of those cute guys! Doesn't matter if he wear any mask or whatever!

Well, every little bit of news helped. So Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is under way. That is great. Jason Isaacs is so modest. He is such a good Luciuc Malfoy. Too bad the arts are such a precarious field.
Danielle has had his kiss with Cho, I hope it was fun for them. In the DVD interview, he said he was looking forward to the kiss. The worst part is kissing someone in front of all the movie workers!

Very neat. It is amazing that so much has been done on the movie already and that they will still take so long. Interesting interpetation by Dan, it will be fun to see if he can play it out that way in the film and convey his view more forceably.

gandalfthegray, it's not only Dan's point of view, David talked about it too. So I think that's the point of view of the script and director, and that's the reason Dan will have to play Harry like that, like the way they want.

I am very excited about this one. It is my favorite book, and I think it is because it has the most "Sirius" in it. Of course I would like to change the "Dept of Mystery" scene, I would have Bellatrix falling through the veil! But I cant wait for it to be complete!!!

I thought that was funny. I don't see why the producers wouldn't want Jason Isaacs back for number 5. It would be stupid for them to replace him.

Its really great to know that the movie is on its way. I am really looking forward to it. I heard a rumor it will be made in 2 parts. I mean its the longest book and there's so much in it they cant possibly reduce it in 2:30 hrs.
