Post Guillermo Del Toro still wants to direct HP

Spanish director Guillermo Del Toro, who said no to directing Prisoner of Azkaban, reiterates his desire to direct a Harry Potter film, in an interview with Empire Magazine.

Quote:
Guillermo Del Toro turned down the chance to direct a Harry Potter film because he thought making vampire sequel Blade II would be much more fun. In retrospect he regrets turning down 2004’s Prisoner of Azkaban, but hasn't give up hope filming another installment so he could "kill one of the kids in Harry Potter," he told British film magazine Empire.

"It’s not out of principle that I turned down Potter. Maybe it looks that way from the outside, but from the inside that's what I felt I wanted to do. I stand by the fact that I was very attracted to the chance to make creepy-looking vampires for many years."

So many people want to direct HP. I hope they eventually choose one that will do justice to the material the way the others have not done so far.

in all honesty. i think the only person who could possibly dircet an HP that came up to standard, in my mind, would be jo rowling herself. Hehe i know she is an author, not a director but after all, HP is her idea and i feel that only she could show it in its glory.

*gulps* No more killing please! Actually... I'd appreaciate it if Sirius wasn't killed in the film... (I know that's possible but can't I dream?)

Well, I hope they choose a good director for the following films

Please all teh directors so far have not had the talent to make it really magical. It was just average with terrible special effects. We need Peter Jackson!

hmmm... I not sure that's a great incentive to direct a harry potter movie - to kill a hp character? Yeah, I'm sure that'll get him the job...

I do hope they choose the next director wisely.
