Quantum of Solace director Marc Forster told MTV that he has declined an offer to return to direct Bond 23. However, he did have some suggestions for what he would like to see on Bond’s next outing.
“They asked me if I wanted to,” Forster told MTV News. “I’ll never say never again, but at this point I would say no.”
“It really depends on what direction they want to take it,” the “Kite Runner” and “Monster’s Ball” director explained. “For me, I wanted to take it to a harder and darker place, but now that that journey I’ve gone on has succeeded, I feel like the next one can take it to a bit more humorous place again.”
“I feel like next time you should take it in a lighter and more humorous way, maybe add a few more girls and a bit more sex – all that kind of stuff,” he said. “I think that would be interesting.”
While I wouldn’t be opposed to this (who would be?) I don’t want the next film to be a romantic comedy. They can add the sex and women as long as it is before, during or after a high speed car chase, explosive mini-bus shoot-out, or an adrenaline filled Go-Kart battle. Lets keep Bond the action master that he is!
