| | |  David Yates confirmed to direct Half-Blood Prince
In an interview with Sci Fi Wire, David Yates confirmed that he will be directing Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Quote:
I am doing Half-Blood Prince, and I'm doing it because I love the world, I love the characters. I think I have more business with this world and these characters.
I've made a kind of tonal shift with the fifth film, which I want to continue and develop into the sixth film. And I can see the fifth story evolving into the sixth story in a really interesting way. So I'm on a journey with this material and this world, and I'm keen to complete it.

That's awesome. OotP is sounding and lookking to be brilliant so it's even better if he continues on with HBP.

That's so awesome. The OOTP looks great so far so hopefully David will do a good job of the HBP as well!

David looks like he did a really good job with the 5th movie, he works well with the darkness of it, but he doesn't make it unecessarily so, like Alfonso did.
YAY DAVID. | |

It sounds like he really enjoys directing HP and that he wants to carry on right through to DH! I can't wait to see what his movie is like!

Yay! He seems to be a good directer for the films. OotP looks by far the best yet so HBP should be good as well. | |

That's awesome *Glomps David* He made OotP seem so awesome by everything we've read and seen about the film. Gal to have him back!

This is great news! David is the perfect one for that. He did a fantastic job for the fifth film, and I just cannot disagree with this. I'm gonna cry...

wow, theyve never had the same person direct two films
but im really happy that he's going to be doing number 6 too because just by watching the trailers you can see that OotP is going to be one awesome movie and i think he helped them become better actors so...yeah!
...hmm i wonder if he might do 7 too?!?!
