Alfonso wants the cast to stay the same

MSNBC reports that Alfonso expresses the same concerns about the kids futures in the HP films - but agrees it would be a great thing if they decided to finish the series.

Quote:

“Right now they’re doing No. 4. There’s only three more to go. I just hope they keep the same cast for the whole thing,” said Cuaron, adding he would love to direct them again.

“So far, they’re holding up very good, the way that they are aging. I don’t think Dan is going to get way much taller or suddenly grow another eye. Same with Emma, and Rupert is OK.

“Let’s hope. In the last one they’re supposed to be 17. Say they’re 19, I think they’re going to be very good,” he said. ”That would be very special.”

Quote:

“It would be priceless. It would be something very special, for the ages.”

Quote:

“I would love to come back,” he said. “My dream is that the cast would remain intact.”

EDIT: The BBC has a clearer version of this story.

1st to post.

wouldint it be great he came back and did OOTP?

i havent seen POA yet but it looks stunning so if they make OOTP he should do it.

he really liked his cast didnt he?

well he wants to come back and do another one and i agree that he would do ootp great

Yeah, do you guys think in fifty years they will re-make the HP series? Lol, sorry, just a thought.
I hope they keep the main characters, also it would be nice to have the same extra's, Hogwarts changes by the years.

I agree with him, you don't really change much between 17 and 19 anyway, I don't think it would be a problem, so I really hope they keep the same cast.

I would love Cuaron to come back for OOTP, because the way POA is looking, and with the critics loving it, it tells us something... He Rocks! :flowersmile:

yes i agree it would be great if Alfonso came back to do OotP 'cos he'd do a really good job of it, with Harry more angry than ever and it looks like he really gets PoA if you get me. anyway i really want all the cast to remain the same, especially the trio and the others like draco, it just wouldn't feel right if another three came in and took over. Dan, Rupert and Emma are getting better and better with each film and by the time film 7 comes around we need people who are really in touch with the characters and who are great actors. oops i'll shut up now....

Yeah I agree with him!! They shouldn't be too old for the final movies .. I mean look at Sean Biggerstaff, he was, like what 19?, in the 2nd movie!

well eh would do a good job on ootp because i bet he could do the mourning over sirius's death really well.Also i really want one of the directors to put in peeves, maybe in gof? because i want him to be terrorising umbridge in ootp.

And unscrewing the chandelier, bringing out the bad girl side of McGonagall.

I think Alfonso would handle the emotions in OoP amazingly. What with Harry's anger, Ron and Hermione down each other's throats, The Luna/Hermione tension, The Cho/Harry tension, the whole Harry/versus alot of the school and the hate and DA thing.
