| | | M. Night Shyamalan offered 'Philosopher's Stone'
M. Night Shyamalan has revealed, during interviews promoting his latest film Lady in the Water, that he was offered to direct ' Philosopher's Stone'. Quote:
"You know, that Harry Potter dance has gone on a long time," he told us. "The problem is that it is a living breathing thing now, all by itself. When it comes over to my camp, it needs to be kind of handed over, adoption papers and everything. That's a tricky move.
"I haven't met with J.K. [Rowling]," he continued. "The first one was offered to me, but that conflicted with 'Unbreakable,' which was unfortunate. I would definitely, but I think probably before that I would adapt a book. I've gotten close a few times to adapting books."
Shyamalan's other works include The Village, Signs, Stuart Little and The Sixth Sense. |

That would've been very cool if he did the first HP movie. I think it'd be even better if he did the Chamber of Secrets, because he tends to do creepier movies and CoS was definitely one of the eerie ones.

M. Night Shyamalan has a unique vibe about him. :] It would have been awesome if he'd accepted the directing job for Sorcer's/Philosopher's Stone. Too bad it interfered with Unbreakable (my friend was an extra in that movie ^^  .
