It seems that Paramount are looking at some very talented directors to fill the void left by Star Wars: The Force Awakens' JJ Abrams. Deadline are reporting that the studio have put together a shortlist of five filmmakers in the wake of Roberto Orci's sudden departure from the project. The list includes Rupert Wyatt (Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes) and Justin Lin (Fast Five) - names that aren't likely to be unfamiliar to most movie fans. Duncan Jones (Source Code) is another interesting choice, despite potentially having a very hectic schedule over the next few months with his much-anticipated Wacraft movie (also due for a 2016 release).
Daniel Espinosa (Safe House) and Oscar-tipped Morten Tyldum (The Imitation Game) round off the list - with the latter having just finished up working with Benedict Cumberbatch (who played 'Khan' in Star Trek Into Darkness). I'm sure you'll all agree they're an extremely talented bunch, but which one do you want to take over Abrams' mantle? Let us know in the comments below!
