The Jerusalem Post has a new interview up with the actor who plays Lucius Malfoy in the Potter films. In it, Jason Issacs discusses his love for being a part of the franchise and the Deathly Hallows split:
"We had a ridiculously good time making them," he says, recalling specific scenes with Richard Harris, Robbie Coltrane, Ralph Fiennes and, of course, Harry himself, Daniel Radcliffe.
Talking about how the last book is set to be made into two films, he says ominously, "I think that's a mistake."
After a beat, he adds, "It should be made into 10 films so I can do it for the rest of my life."
Read the rest right here. Thanks to HPANA for the tip!

Ive always had this feeling that Jasons the most excited (about the films) of the cast. I think that just because of that he should get more lines!

Aw, I love how Isaacs is a true superfan. I agree with him, It should totally be 10 films.

10 films, one per year, daniel, emma, rupert, tom and bonnie just at the right age for the last chapter of the last book lol. no make up needed lol.
i hope they will be able to aged them so that they wont have to ask for others actors to play their roles.

I absolutely adore Jason Isaacs and Im glad that he enjoys making the films and the HP series in general as much as we do. And Im sure he and Dan, Ralph and everyone else have a great time.
Wouldnt it be awful if the older actors were dismissive of the younger ones? Thankfully theyre not and they all seem to get on well.
Jason is quite sexilicious - not sure if thats a a word, but hey...

Jason Issacs is the best! I totally agree with him about making ten films! The funny thing is he is so into his character, hes even read fanfiction about his character, and gets a laugh out of it!
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-12-22 11:45:43
Ditto on the whole ten more films. I love how enthusiastic he is. It definitely shows when hes acting!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-12-22 13:16:04
Haha that was funny. At first I was like, "how could he be mad about a 2 part movie?!?!" and then when he says he wishes it was 10 I actually laughed out loud. It is really cool that he loves his part so much. :]

when I first read it I was like how can you say splitting the last film into 2 parts is a mistake, are you crazy! Until I read the rest of it lmao :D
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-12-22 17:22:30
I think its Isaacs, not Issacs.
|
Posted by: - Posted on: 2008-12-22 18:21:43

They need more people like Jason Issacs who love their work this much working on the Potter films.
