Steve Kloves will return for 'Half-Blood Prince'
 
In November last year it was announced that Michael Goldenberg would write the script for 'Order of the Phoenix'. At the press conference today it was confirmed that Steve Kloves (the scriptwriter for all 4 Potter films thus far) will return to the franchise for film 6.

Quote:

"[Steve Kloves] is a brilliant adapter, in the sense that he is able to retain the voice of the author that he's adapting....He is a fantastic writer, who manages to bring a... who has a keen sense of character, and really understands the voice of the actors. He has written four. He also can write with great emotion, and at the same time, also great humor.

"He is not doing the fifth because he is writing another script for me called The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, which I hope he will direct. However, he read the sixth book and couldn't stay away, so he's going to come back and write the sixth."

At this, Mike Newell, who had just heard this for the first time, responded enthusiastically, saying, "Oh, great! Oh, that is good."

1st to post!
thats good news ..i guess..

*Snivellus* 10-22-2005 10:03 PM

Well that's...eh not what I expected... Blah!

EmmaRiddle 10-22-2005 10:06 PM

Neither me Sniv. I wanted Michael to do the rest of them. In my opinion he's a better writer.

Mrs Felton 10-22-2005 10:09 PM

Ick ... I'd rather have Michael do the rest, he's better than Steve.

Eowyn Weasley 10-22-2005 10:13 PM

Grrr!! I really dislike Kloves' portrayl of the books, Michael will probably be so much better. Stupid Warner Brothers..keep Michael!!!!

OtterySt.Catchpole 10-22-2005 10:16 PM

If they got Tarantino to direct he could do the script too...LOL
 
*sighs* Well it's not like it's going to keep me from watching the film, but my expectations have dropped dramatically...I hope they get a good director at least. But Hitchcock is dead, where are the Houston's and Wilder's of our day? :cry:

EmmaRiddle 10-22-2005 10:19 PM

Cheer up Ottery, this way you'll get what you want in one sense. I bet you the message will very much be Snape = evil. That's the impression GoF gives according to the overview so that's bound to happen with HBP too.

Fortune_Cookie 10-22-2005 10:28 PM

I'm fine with it, as long as the book is protrayed well and doesn't go way off it or anything. Like, I'm still sure the other movies will be brilliant!

hawthorneheightsfreak 10-22-2005 10:35 PM

thats great

rupertLOVER22 10-22-2005 10:52 PM

O, that supprised me. I read somewhere that he would not re returning, so I had expections for a different (probably better) movie, but whats done is done and I suppose that we are going to have to live with the decision, hua?

I feel the same way - and also I had finally hoped that with Michael we would have an end to the 'Girl-Power-Hermione' ...but she will probably be back in the 6th then!... :toilet2:

I'm just well...it's kinda weird they won't give Michael a chance and let him try it out - just like they did with the directors...why can't they try and new one and just forget about Kloves.

What you read probably referred to OotP which he will NOT be doing.

kaZombie 10-22-2005 11:03 PM

i agree. as long as it doesn't change the whole story and people who haven't read the book understand the basic idea of the movie, then i'm fine.

SnoggingLupin13 10-22-2005 11:34 PM

Well, there's one good thing about this.

......

Uh... *thinks* Never mind. This is crap, to put it simply. *sigh* I am so disappointed. Does this mean that the R/Hr in HBP will actually turn into H/Hr, since apparently Kloves likes to write in H/Hr?

Lupin Jr 10-22-2005 11:42 PM

You are kidding right? Ah, I thought Super!Hermione had gone down in flames after her self-rightous, Mary-Sue character in PoA failed to attract much empathy from the audience. Why do I have a feeling Hermione will suddenly harness a skill in quidditch, Ron will be an idjit, Harry will take a back-seat, Luna will be a ditz and Ginny will appear in the background of one scene, despite the fact that she is the love interest.
*HeadDesk*
ahem... I mean... yay...

IckleRonnyPrefectLuvrr 10-23-2005 12:03 AM

Well if you think about it Steve Kloves does write the dialogue very good but some of the things he does just annoys me soooo much but oh well we will have to see what he does.

AnimagusPadfoot 10-23-2005 12:06 AM

I am disappointed with this news.

luckyangelkmf 10-23-2005 12:25 AM

Well then, who's gonna write the 5th?

Tinker_Belle 10-23-2005 01:00 AM

Great. Another book he can ruin.

Lily's Eyez 10-23-2005 01:02 AM

i dont really know who i want to do them i guess i like michael better so i would want michael

Mistress Vondella 10-23-2005 02:05 AM

*cries*

Not Kloves!!

Emma, why don't you write the screen play and send it to WB? At least then we'd know the characters would be protrayed accurately.

*goes off to my corner to cry*

kissin'R.G.39 10-23-2005 02:43 AM

Whatever... Who's Steve Kloves Anyway? :dizzy:

slytherinprincess93 10-23-2005 02:53 AM

oh no............ not him! if he does come back, which he must not, I will die! I'm going to go off and cry now. :cry:
