'Yet more Harry with Chris...'

[Nicky]

This is a tiny article I found in the Dec/Jan LOTR edition of the
Cineworld magazine (I've copied this word for word, letter for letter,
so any mistakes are not mine):

"With 'Harry Potter And The Philosopher's Stone' finally in cinemas,
and 'Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets' already under way (and
with a release date set for November 2002) Chris Columbus  has been
chatting about the film, and got asked the big question - would he like
to be at the helm for all seven expected films. His reply? "My dream,
and it is truly a dream at this point, is to see all seven films
through and to see the same cast [in all seven]. In the Michael Apted
television documentaries, like "7-UP" and "28-UP", you see these kids
grow up from year to year. I think it would be interesting to see that
happen on screen with Daniel, Emma and Rupert.  If I could take three
months off between each picture, I could probably do it, but the
commitment to get them out once a year is very strong, in terms of the
hours. I don't know if I want to spend seven years away from my family.
But the idea of seeing seven Harry Potter films through is exciting to
me. As a fan of cinema, it would be great. I truly love the characters,
but maybe after I did three, I'd say, 'I think I've done enough'."

Make of that what you will.
