Hee hee, I'm glad that she's going to play umbridge up to par (well I assume so, if she's so excellent).
She's a good little evil character.
And the movie better be even better than the fourth! It's my fave!!!

Ooooh I'm so glad he likes the director! I was a little worried... it didn't seem as if Yates had had much experience, so taking on Harry Potter was a huge thing for him...I'm really glad Dan likes him! And of course, having a great actress play Umbridge is important, too.. you have to be REALLY great to act that evil!

Daniel and the rest of the cast are really fortunate to work with some of the greatest directors! I am so glad that he is happy working with Yates. It's good to here that Staunton is a brilliant actress, because her part nees to be very vile(is that the appropriate word?) and cruel...! Can't wait to see the finishing results when the movie hits the theaters!

That's nice to hear. Hopefully Yates does a good job. And most importantly Imelda Staunton. Getting Umbridge right will mean getting half the movie right.

Now fianally some news from the movie. Good to hear that Imelda Staunton is brilliant - she'll fit into the list of fantastic actors playing in the Harry Potter movies. Pity that we all have to wait till next year before we see the result...

I wish we could read the entire newsletter, to know all he says about OotP and December Boys.
But I know Page probably won't post it at the moment.
At least thanks to Dan we hear something about OotP!

Nice to see him keeping up the communication with the fans. He does seem to want to interact and appreciates the attention people pay. It appears well balanced.
