Zack Snyder is a busy man. He is putting the finishing touches on his upcoming Superman outing, Man Of Steel, and if it is successful he could be back for a sequel. Ever since Disney announced that they will be doing another set of Star Wars movies a lot of people have thrown his name out there as a possible director. While chatting with the LA Times, Snyder said he isn't interested. “I don’t think I’d be interested in directing it. I’m a huge ‘Star Wars’ fanatic. I just think doing episodes seven, eight and nine is just a slippery slope. It’s a whole other mythological experiment I’m excited to see, but it’s a lot of effort,” he said. Now this is no way shape or form confirmation that he was even offered the job. Once again with his busy schedule with Man Of Steel, a long with potential sequel, it would come as no surprise that he wouldn't be interested.

The recent rumors on the Star Wars film is that Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher are open to coming back and exploring the universe. While Matthew Vaughn is rumored to have left X-Men Days of Future Past for the new trilogy. However, Mark Millar said earlier this week that Vaughn leaving X-Men was due to him wanting to get out a movie version of Secret Service with him.
