Below is an excerpt from the exclusiver report over at
Latino Review. To read the story in its entirety and to hear more from the director, make sure to head on over to the site by clicking below. This was Gunn's response to being asked whether he has any interest in directing a mainstream superhero movie, and for Marvel Studios in particular.
"Yeah, I mean there's a lot of things that I would like to do and I've even talked to people about it. I've had discussions with Marvel, even from the beginning of the career. I remember being offered to write 'Fantastic Four' ten years ago or some that I didn't do. If something inspired me I would.
"A lot of things I'm attracted to may not be may not be the most popular superheroes in the world and so it's just a matter of finding the right project. But I would do it if it was something that inspired me. You never know, some morning I could wake up with an idea in my head for anything and it could be a western, a comedy, a superhero movie, a melodrama and that's what will take me over for that day.
"I don't think my next movie is going to be an ultra-low budget movie like 'Super,' but I don't think -- I love doing it, I'm happy I did it, but if I do it again for another year I think it might kill me. So I think I'm going to do something with a little bit of a bigger budget, more of an entertaining pop-show and that's what I plan on doing next."
Can you think of a character that you'd like to see Gunn helm? With
Super set to be released on April 1st, I guess we can find out then who he might be best suited to! Be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place.
