I'm hoping Richard Curtis will do HBP.

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with Richard Curtis. What's on his resume?

He's only directed one film so far, Love Actually, but he's written a host of films and TV shows. Mr. Bean, Black Adder, Four Wedings & A Funeral, Bridget Jones, Notting Hill.

He interviews the cast on the GoF DVD. He's a brilliant writer and Love Actually showed he can direct the hell out of character actors in an ensemble setting. He even made Alan Rickman likeable. I know he'd nail the humorous parts of the books that have been sorely lacking in the films without sacrificing the emotional textures.

Edit: Oh, and he wrote "The Girl in the Cafe" which was David Yates' last film.


Interesting.
