The Leaky Cauldron have put up their interview with Alfonso Cuarón from the PoA DVD Launch - he says the following about returning to the franchise:
Quote:
"Later on if I could I would love to come back and work on another Harry Potter film. It's a gift, it's a gift. It was one of the best years of my life, doing this film.
On working with children, he says:
Quote:
I don't think they would appreciate you calling them children! They are teenagers, they are young adults, maybe. It's fantastic. They're amazing. It's an amazing group of actors. At this point they are such experienced actors, they are ... interacting with some of the best actors in life.
The Guardian is now also reporting that Cuarón has signed a three year deal with WB:
Quote:
The deal will allow him to work not only on big-budget "mainstream" films, but also on smaller Spanish-language pictures. The deal is an unusual one.
"We had a wonderful experience with Alfonso on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and have been long-time admirers of his work," the studio's Jeff Robinov told Variety.
"His deal will give us the opportunity to collaborate with Alfonso on movies that make the most of his artistry and vision and continue to offer him the mainstream worldwide audiences that our studio provides so successfully."
