Gravity director Alfonso Cuarón, who originally reinvigorated the Harry Potter franchise with Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban, has turned down the offer to direct the JK Rowling-penned spin-off, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.
“I have a lot of love for that universe, and I tremendously admire JK Rowling, but today, for the present, projects based around lots of visual effects don’t attract me,” Cuarón told The Global Post.
“I’m coming out of a five-year process of doing visual effects, and now I sort of want to clean my palate of that a little bit.”
