Newell says GOF has more adult challenge

GOF director Mike Newell recently participated in an interview with movie magazine Empire. With regard to the Goblet of Fire movie he said: "This one's so completely, radically different. It's also unlike anything I've ever done before, which was partly the idea behind it. Really, the only limitation is what you can imagine, which is remarkable.

"The first two films are very sunny in a way, and very wish-fulfillment-y. But there is no adult challenge. Alfonso put some of that in and I take it further forward. The truth that you tell with and for and about an 11 year-old is different from what you'll tell with a 15 year-old."
