Cinematographer Eduardo Serra, who has done previous work for Defiance, Blood Diamond, and Girl with a Pearl Earring, has been hired as Director of Photography for both parts of the seventh installment of the Harry Potter series, Deathly Hallows. The Panalux News released a statement confirming Mr. Serra's involvement, which can be read here:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released November 19, 2010 and May 2011.
Source: The Leaky Cauldron UPDATE: Eduardo has now confirmed this news and said the following; Quote:
"Yes, I confirm it!
I am very touched by your support and your interest for my work.
We have just begun the shooting strictly speaking in the best of the atmospheres. It is a pleasure
and an honor to join this team.
Thank you.
Eduardo Serra
P.S. - I am French (and so Portuguese)."
Thanks to UHP for the tip! |

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Awesome. He's really good. Defiance was a brilliant movie. So was Blood Diamond. All of the movies he's done are pretty dramatic and action packed so it's great that they got a cinematographer who's experience in that because Deathly Hallows is DEFINITELY action-packed, suspenseful, dramatic, scary (that part with the snake and bathilda still scares the crap out of me)!

WB has gotten many well respected DOP's for the films. They've all done a wonderful job, but I have to say, Eduardo Serra will have one tough act to follow after Bruno Delbonell's brilliant work as the DOP for HBP. But Serra is an excellent choice.

I also have to add that the director tells the Director of Photography what he wants, so when you see HBP and praise it's cinematography, remember David Yates had a hand in it too. And he was always great with cinematography. Even in his T.V. films. Eduardo Serra will do a beautiful job in DH.
