- His favorite Harry Potter film is Harry Potter und der Gefangene von Askaban (2004), one that was not directed by him .
- Is one of four directors to helm the Harry Potter films, the others being Chris Columbus, Alfonso Cuarón and Mike Newell.
- Is the uncle of England international football player Theo Walcott.
- He trained as a director at the National Film and Television School in Beaconsfield.
- People who work in television often don't think they can trust film makers because they are supposed to be a bit more arty and self indulgent, and people in film might think anyone who works in television is a hack. If we had more filmmakers working in television, and more television writers and directors working in film, we'd have a much healthier and more vital industry.
- I like to create an atmosphere where actors feel safe enough to take risks. I certainly don't believe in being a macho bully; I'm not interested in frightening good work out of people. It's bollocks.
- In an ideal world, I'd bounce between big projects and no-budget TV dramas with fantastic scripts. A lot of Hollywood films tend to be bloated, bombastic, loud. At the same time, I do like the infrastructure of making a blockbuster; it's like having a big train set.
