- In an interview with The Observer, Jason Isaacs briefly commented on what it is like on set:
I spent two weeks having a wand fight with Helena Bonham Carter (Bellatrix) and Gary Oldman (Sirius). Potter is a well-oiled machine now, whichever director is in charge, although it's a slow process working with all those special effects. But it's such a laugh - five weeks hanging out with Oldman and Maggie Smith (McGonagall) and Michael Gambon (Dumbledore), who's a right mischievous devil. - Dan Radcliffe comments about the fifth film's teaser trailer in a short interview with CBBC Newsround. Click here to see the video. Screencaps can be found here.
- In an interview with AM New York, Rupert Grint described the filming of the Thestral scenes:
It was really a good time because they had to make a mold, a specially made harness that goes under your legs, because in the film it has to be invisible. They put you on this crane and lifted you up in the air. That's been my favorite scene so far." Rupert aso discusses a spider scene the producers attempted but ended up cutting out.

director David Yates discussed the filming of Order of the Phoenix.
Excerpts from the article:
How different is this Potter?Very different so far - this role's more challenging than the ones I done before. Not physically challenging but in terms of acting, it's harder to do this one. And then it is different working with David, he's sort of got a very high quiet voice and he's soft spoken.
This movie is also different because there was a big gap in the middle because we stopped for a month and a half to do school exams and stuff. So the production shut down in the middle, which was very odd because that hasn't happened before.
Thedirector's approach to the kissing scene between Harry and Cho was also discussed. You can read the interview in full here
- In order to prepare for OoTP, Daniel Radcliffe has been meeting
with a bereavement counselor so he can understand the survivor's guilt
his character is feeling. "Sirius is clinging on to James through me,
and I'm trying to know my father through him," Radcliffe said. "The
same thing happens with me and Cho. I was the last person there when
her last boyfriend, Cedric, was killed." Click
