In a recent interview
to discuss her new movie Driving Lessons, Julie Walters from the Harry Potter movies briefly discussed filming on Order of the Phoenix.
Julie discussing a scene from Order of the Phoenix:
Oh yeah, Christmas; we have a very good Christmas. The sets are fantastic; Mark (Williams), who plays Mr. Weasley, said they made his hair stand up on the back of his neck when he walked into one of the rooms. They're just so beautiful, they're amazing.
On working with director David Yates compared to Chris Columbus and Alfonso Cuarón:
He's very unassuming; they were in a way, Alfonso was, but he's fantastic. [David] is very into the emotional truth of it, the kids absolutely love it; he's very sweet and kind, and very, very into the story like a child is. And he's really into the emotional depths, and he's really fantastic, he's a lovely man.

Cool stuff. I cannot believe HP has had so many directors. I wish they didn't because it makes the movies inconsistant. Too late now.

Cool, a new interview. I'm happy that Mrs. Weasley's in this movie, I missed her in the last one. I also loved her in Driving Lessons(I haven't seen it but I've seen so many clips I can get the idea)

It sounds like David Yates is going to be very good, especially with Order of the Phoenix since it is pretty emotional.

While I wish her well with Driving Lessons i am always relieved to see that they remember the movie that pays the bills and makes them a household name.
I just wish that GOF had included more of Molly, as she is a mother figure to Harry and is an important part of how he reacts in much of GOF.
Did anyone else notice how she failed to mention Chris Columbus, curious.

From fun and crazy, to sweet and kind. How do they deal with that kind of change? Hmm, I want to see how they act the OotP, with all the emotion and stuff. Maybe it'll be more ...real, this time around.
