On Sunday, the News of the World reported that Jack Ryder of Eastenders fame may be taking the role of Cedric Diggory in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
Also, and more importantly, the Big Screen teletext service reports that after he has finished with Chamber of Secrets, Chris Colombus will give up the helm to Mexican Alfonso Cuaron. Variety supports this report stating:
The studio is eyeing some wild cards to take over directing chores on the "Potter" pics' third installment. One name that can safely be crossed from the list: Chris Columbus, who directed both "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" as well as next year's sequel, "Chamber of Secrets." He's told the studio he wants to bring his family home after living in Blighty for more than a year.
