Chris Columbus believes there are more stories to tell about Harry, Ron and Hermione.

[toggler title=”TL;DR” ]In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Chris Columbus said that he had originally wanted to direct all of the Harry Potter films, but was afraid it would take him away from his family too much. He went on to say that he would like to direct another Harry Potter film, but not the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them kind. He said, “I would love to go back and do another one. Not Fantastic Beasts as much, which I think is going to be amazing, but I would love to do another movie with those three characters — Harry, Hermione, and Ron. I’m just fascinated about what happened to them after the end of the last movie, because then they cut to 18 years ahead. There’s 18 years there of great Harry Potter stories.”[/toggler]

I’m just fascinated about what happened to them after the end of the last movie, because then they cut to 18 years ahead. There’s 18 years there of great Harry Potter stories.”

The first step Chris Columbus would have to take in order to direct another film would be to ask the author of the books series, J.K. Rowling, if he could. So has he?

“I don’t have the courage to actually mention that to her because I have such respect for her. She should do what she wants to do, but I really would love to know what’s in her head about those missing years.”
