Recent rumors have suggested either that George Miller is directing Man of Steel 2 or that he is at least in line for a DC movie property.
Now while promoting the Doritos Super Bowl contest in another interview, Zack Snyder tackles the rumor stating he hasn’t talked about it with Miller.
“George doing one of the DC movies? Oh my God, absolutely. George can do anything he wants, in my opinion,” Snyder told The Herald Sun. “We haven’t talked about it, and to be frank I just didn’t know what he was thinking of doing next. But yeah, if I was to think he had any interest in them of course I’m happy to talk to him.”
Snyder continues with mention that Miller would be welcome to come on board.
“Oh my God, [the door is] so open,” Snyder said.
Previously, Snyder took a couple of jabs at Marvel and Ant-Man, and now offers more.
“It’s an interesting question. I haven’t seen Ant-Man. I just haven’t had time. I’ve been so stacked, I’ve been in post, but I do want to, I have an interest in seeing it. But to me it’s like, there’s undeniable and amazing talent and entertainment in the movies they make, and Joss [Whedon] is really good. The question is whether or not — or how — the superhero genre evolves, or does it stay the same? Steven Spielberg made that comment about [superhero movies] going the way of the westerns, and my reaction is: then you’ve got to make a better movie. That’s the reality. I know that doesn’t really answer the question, but the feeling is that we can’t stay the same, that’s one thing for sure.”
