Mike Newell, who will direct the fourth Harry Potter
film, told SCI FI Wire that he has spoken with Alfonso Cuar�n, director of the
upcoming third film, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, to make sure his
film picks up where Cuar�n's leaves off. Production of Harry Potter and the
Goblet of Fire will begin in late April or early May, with Daniel Radcliffe
(Harry), Rupert Grint (Ron) and Emma Watson (Hermione) reprising their
roles.
"They're all actually the age they are in the story," Newell said in
an interview.
"What Alfonso has done very remarkably is he's developed
the films from a sunny vision of childhood into something that is much darker
and blacker,"
Newell said. "And he's done that without taking away any of the
romance of the thing. But he has transformed it into adolescence, and I must go
on from what he's done. [I] can't go back."
Newell added that he is
currently in preproduction, dealing with creature design. "I am currently
working with dragons," he said.
