He is a friend and colleague of Alfonso Cuaron, the man directing 'Prisoner of Azkaban' and seems to have liked the film.
When asked about Harry Potter 3, he had this to say: Quote:
Kel: Really? How was it? And is it darker from the other the two films?
Guillermo del Toro: It’s absolutely fantastic. It’s not only a beautiful Harry Potter film, it’s an absolutely delight of a film period. Its just…Alfonso imagination for anyone who saw Little Princess, it’s extremely rich and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is incredibly detailed, incredibly full of spectacle and intelligence. I mean I was blown away by it, I think it’s going to be a huge success. I saw it London and it’s simply fantastic.
Kel: Would you have taken a project like Harry Potter?
Guillermo del Toro: They actually offered me Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban before Alfonso. Which is actually very good in terms of realizing the way Latino filmmakers are regarded. I was very sincere with what I said before. I love the Harry Potter universe, I love the books but I felt more passion towards doing HELLBOY. It was a project that I had been involved so long and if I didn’t do it now, I could never get to do it. I'm extremely happy that Alfonso took it and he did a fantastic productive job. I think it’s one the best children’s movies I have ever seen in my life.
