J.J. Abrams Wont Direct Star Wars

Lost and Star Trek Director J.J. Abrams has confirmed that he won’t be in the running to direct the new Star Wars Trilogy opener Episode VII for Disney. Ruling himself out of the task of continuing the beloved space saga  he admitted that he felt put off by the burden of trying to live up to the iconic original trilogy.

Despite having masterminded the triumphant reboot of the Star Trek  franchise, Abrams clearly has less enthusiasm for taking on the other top space franchise.

“Star Wars is one of my favourite movies of all time, I almost feel that, in a weird way, the opportunity for whomever it is to direct that movie, it comes with the burden of being that kind of iconic movie and series. I was never a big Star Trek  fan growing up, so for me, working on Star Trek didn’t have any of that, you know, almost fatal sacrilege, and so, I am looking forward more than anyone to the next iterations of Star Wars, but I believe I will be going as a paying moviegoer.”

 

Michael Bay Gives Transformers 4 Details

Director and explosion fanatic Michael Bay has confirmed that Transformers 4 will be set appropriately 4 years after the climactic events of the last film Transformers Dark Of The Moon. We already know that the human cast are being entirely replaced with a sweaty Shia LaBeouf making way for Mark Wahlberg looking typically confused and/or angry.

“The movie will continue four years from the attack on Chicago, which is in the last movie. So it’s going to still have the same lineage. And it’s going a full new direction and feels very natural how it’s going in that direction. There is no way you’re going to ever find out what the story is. You don’t have to dig through my trash… I shredded my trash.”

So Michael Bay is promising that the new Transformers film will be going in a vaguely ‘new direction’ despite the fact it’s quickly evolved from a welcome franchise reboot with a new director to a straightforward sequel directed by himself.

It remains to be seen whether or not this ‘new direction’ for the unavoidably popular fighting robot franchise will involve less lingerie models making their acting debuts between an endless series of explosions. Transformers 4  will arrive in UK cinemas on 27 June 2014.

Guillermo Del Toro Plans DC Comics Movie

Guillermo Del Toro has confirmed that he is in talks for Heaven Sent, a super-hero team up movie for DC Comic that would unite popular supernatural heroes like John Constantine and Swamp Thing.

“When somebody asked me about Justice League…I’m not involved in Justice League. I am discussing… I’ve been discussing with the fans and I’ve been very, very open about how much Swamp Thing was key when I was a kid. Comics in Mexico came on the first two days of the week. Around Tuesday and Wednesday I would go to the newsstand on my bicycle and I would get Swamp Thing every time it was available and I loved Jack Kirby’s Demon. I love Constantine and all that. You know, I’ve been pursuing doing something with them for many, many years. Hopefully it’ll come to pass. But we are still just discussing.”

In another recent interview Del Toro also confirmed that he’s already working on Pacific Rim sequel ideas with screenwriter Travis Beacham.

“We certainly started tossing ideas for possibilities of a sequel and Travis Beacham and I are writing a proposal of ideas, but at the same time I know I don’t want to do that next. I want to do something else, I want to do something in a different genre that’s not so big. So I don’t know yet what it’s gonna be, but I know that next year I’m delivering Pacific Rim in July and then I’m doing – God willing – the voice shooting for Pinocchio and then the pilot for The Strain for FX.”
