No, no, no to both Cuaron and Columbus although I really loved PoA and that was my favourite HP movie. The movie was just way too off from the book in the case of Cuaron and followed the book way too much in the case of Columbus.

I would only accept Columbus as a director for one of the last two movies if he took the darker route that was begun by Cuaron. The first two movies were great, but they really were a little too disney-fied.

Lovely interview. I'm excited about the Weasely Christmas. We're all starting to wonder if this means the R/Hr perfume scene! :) And Rupert looks great. I dig him in purple.

Nice interview w/Rupert.
He only acknowledged the rumors about Chris Columbus and Alfonso Cuaron; Rupert is unable to shed any light for us about the next directors.
Oh, well--I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
I'd like to see the funny camping scene Rupert mentioned in "Driving Lessons".

Ooooh!!! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to see Cuaron do one of the last films. I still think his was the best and most artistic and moodiful of all the films thus far.

Cool, It would be cool to wrap up the Harry Potter movie series with Chris and Alfonso taking part in the production in the end. Yup, a good way to wrap things up in my opinion.

Don't get me wrong, but please don't bring Alfonso back. He is a good director I love his other movies, but I didn't like POA at all. Chris Columbus did a good job, but I like Mike Newell better.

Alfonso should come back. Columbus -- no. I think if Columbus came back I might protest, not really, but I would be very upset. If Alfonso came back, I would rejoyce!

I can't believe that I have to wait until next month to see DL.
I'm gonna go with the flow with this director issue. I wonder how much input the actor know with coming up movies.
Anyways, nice video.

I really hope that Columbus comes back to do the 6th movie atleast. It would be good to see him direct again. I really can't wait to what this new director will do with the movie.

Hmm...both directors were fairly good... Columbus made the films like the books, but they were kind of boring. Cuarón made the movies very exciting, but wasn't very close to the book. Maybe if they both directed both of them together... ;D

Oh lord, please please not Alfonso..I couldn't take another Azkacrap, I just can't. I have too many issues for that movie. The only thing he did right was make more edgy and brought out r/hr more.
But if Chris is willing to take that edge tone, I want him back so bad! He stuck mostly to canon and that's all I ask!
By the way, Rupert looks great in that T-shirt! So cute!

Thanks for providing a link to this interview. It's fascinating to see how Rupert is maturing, and good to see him having an opportunity to do something substantial beyond the Potter films. Whoever directs films 6 and 7, I hope they do a fantastic job.

Personally, I don't care who does the final movie as long as they do it well and capture the essence of the story whilst still sticking to the primary storyline!

I don't think it's wise to return to an old director. Although Alfonso did amazing things for the series and took it away from a kids movie. It's nice to get new and fresh perspectives.
