David Yates, who directed the final four Harry Potter films and all three Fantastic Beasts prequel films, recently confirmed that he is not involved with the upcoming reboot for the Max streaming service.Speaking with ComicBook.com, Yates revealed that his time playing in the Wizarding World was over. “Honestly, I could not, in any conceivable way, get involved. It’s simply: I spent a long time at that school, in those corridors and in those classrooms, and it was an exquisite experience and one I will always treasure. But to go back and do another year or two, for me, I feel I’ve left it,” Yates explained. “Being in the back of a van with [producer] Lawrence [Grey] in Atlanta of Savannah, hoofing it to try and make a drama, to me, at the moment, is more compelling than going through the hallowed gates of Hogwarts.”He added, “I wish that show so well, it’s gonna be amazing to see them re-explore all it can be for the next generation. I think it’ll be a challenge for everyone involved, but it’s a very exciting enterprise and I wish it well. It was an amazing experience for me, and I know the other filmmakers who were involved, and it will be for the next generation of filmmakers.”RELATED: Voldemort Killed Harry Potter’s Parents for a Surprisingly Simple Reason
