Emma Watson and Jason Isaacs from the Harry Potter movies appeared this past Sunday at the Empire Awards
in London and both spoke with Film Focus on current filming, Mike Newell and briefly about Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Emma on working with British director Mike Newell:
He's a fantastic director and he's just a really, really lovely man. He's taught me a lot, he really has. What's lovely is that he's a real actor's director. He really cares about the acting which, from my point of view, is fantastic.
Emma goes on to mention that she isn't even thinking about the next film as it takes eleven months to shoot and plays down rumors that Goblet of Fire will be her last stating that she is "growing up with the character."
Mr. Isaacs discusses that all of his scenes are mostly with Ralph Fiennes: "It's a tour de force; a real performance and joy to sit back and watch." He also mentions that he hasn’t been signed to star in Order of the Phoenix and that the script hasn’t even been written yet.

This is really neat. It sounds like the cast is very much interested in continuing in the roles. That would just make the series.

Great! I am happy that Emma is excited about GoF and feels like she is growing up with her character. I hope the trio signs for the rest of the HP series of movies. It will not be the same without them.

I am glad to hear that Emma Watson decided to come back for at least another movie after Goblet of Fire. I hope that she sticks with her word and do Order of the Phoenix, and possibly the next 2 movies as well - Half Blood Prince and book 7.
Since they started it, I hope that the 3 will do all the 7 films.

Well, She is a great actress, I can't imagine another person for that character. She must continue filming all the movies.

Ninth to post! Yah! Well, like I said as long as they don't screw up the movie I'm fine. But if they don't even have the scripts for the next movie... well... that shows how organized they are! *No offense because I'm not there to actually know why*

Emma better come back!! In a Entertainment Weekly magazine last year when Prisoner of Azkaban came out, the article stated that the president of Warner Brothers had to make a personal plea for her to come back for the fourth movie!!

I'm glad that Jason Isaacs is in GoF, I think he does a wonderful job playing Lucius. Wow, with what he said, I'm really excited to see how Fiennes plays Voldemort!

I hope everyone comes back. It's good to hear the actors want to come back. It wouldn't be the same without them. I'll be very sad at first if they decide to leave, but just hope they don't.

Oh! I can;t wait for the movie! Is Emma not going to be in OotP? They way it said, it sounded like she's not going to be in it. As much as I don't really like her, I want her to be in the next film. It wouldn't be the same without her.

I hope Emma will be in Order of the Phoenix, and all the other actors, for that matter. Wow, I can't believe they're already talking about the fifth movie. I mean, it's not even that close to November yet.

oooo So exciting! I'm glad Emma definitely hasn't squashed the rumors about her NOT being in OOTP.
But it does suck that it will take 11 months to film!

Oh well...Still excited for GOF!!

I'm so glad she's willing to do OoP. Like many people here, I dont think I will watch the movie without Dan, Rupert, or Emma. I really hope they do all seven

It is so great to hear that the cast enjoys the filming. I am so much looking forward to The Goblet of Fire. The movies would not be the same if any of the trio left. They need to stay throughout the series to keep continuity.

I hope that they all stay on for the next film, it wouldnt be the same if the trio was replaced. I really hope that they stay for the entire series, and i think many other people will agree with me.
