I am very happy about this possibility as well. I have been impressed
with Monsoon Wedding and Mississippi Masala. I am also impressed with
the trend the producers are exhibiting in the choice of directors:
top-drawer people, like Cuaron and Newell,  who are not primarily
known for directing children's films, like Columbus. This gives me 
very high hopes for the future of the Harry Potter films.
