Order of the Phoenix in USA Today

Friday, January 19th, 2007


USA Today takes a look at “seven of 2007’s most-anticipated family-friendly sequels and films spun from stage and TV” including Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Here’s what they have to say about OOTP…not to mention showing us this new picture of Daniel Radcliffe.

“The cast is growing older, film by film, and the audience is growing with them,” says David Yates, director of No. 5. “That’s what is beautiful with Harry Potter. Our story is the most emotionally complex one so far.” That includes Harry’s first kiss, shared with fellow wizard-in-training Cho Chang (Katie Leung). Yates assures that the film “has all of the whiz-bang whistles and bells as well. We have centaurs, half-men and half-horse. A backwoods giant baby and Hagrid’s half-brother, Grawp. And some beautiful, hypnotic thestrals that are only seen when someone has died.”
