Whether you like it or not, Harry Potter franchise is drawing to an end. It started in 2001 and after a long journey, we are through with five installments. Half-Blood Prince would be in theatres by November, 2008 and sometime in 2010, Deathly Hallows would be ringing box-office registers.
Harry Potter films have been directed by 4 different directors.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone-Christopher Columbus
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets-Christopher Columbus
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban-Alfonso Cuaron
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire-Mike Newell
Harry Potter and Order of the Phoenix-David Yates
Half Blood Prince is in the hands of David Yates himself and so, he would probably be riding high with delight at the moment. But the important question is-who should direct Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows?
Being probably the best book of the series, Deathly Hallows deserves something special. It has a classic epic sense to it. The best director, I feel, would be Peter Jackson. He's the master of such movies. He's a master of fitting finales. What he did for Lord of the Rings is a testimony to this fact? He can transform the entire appeal of the series with just one movie.
Warner Bros. should request him for this and try and get him on board at least for the final installment. In the future blogs I would enquire into why he can make that movie special?
