The largest new film to drop on Netflix this month has undoubtedly been The Old Guard, a Charlize Theron-fronted superhero fantasy flick that’s grabbed this week’s showbiz information cycle. Properly, that or Johnny Depp’s courtroom case (let’s not go there, although).
On the again of what’s been a profitable debut, the query for some is, what’s subsequent? Yep, the movie’s been out for lower than 5 days and individuals are already asking a couple of sequel. It’s relentless. Anyway, that risk was put to director Gina Prince-Bythewood in a brand new interview with Salon and right here’s what she needed to say:
“Foremost it’s completely as much as the viewers . . . you simply by no means know. I hope that the viewers loves it and desires to see extra. It was essential that the movie itself has a starting, center, and finish as a result of I get irritated by films that go away issues large open. This was completely a part of what the graphic novel was and the way it ended.”
“Like, as somebody within the viewers I wish to know what occurred, in the end. So I did love that little bit of a tease. However it’s as much as the viewers. Greg has at all times envisioned it as a trilogy, by way of this graphic novel. So if the story will get to proceed, you already know, there’s actually extra tales to inform.”
Prince-Bythewood references Greg Rucka’s graphic novel of the identical title, from which the film was tailored. It sounds promising so far as the artistic workforce’s need for extra is worried and the supply materials has actually been designed with future instalments in thoughts, so no bottlenecks there. All that is still is for audiences to provide Netflix a purpose to say sure to extra. And from what we’ve heard over the previous few days, they’ve already secretly accomplished that.
Down for extra? Drop a remark together with your ideas on a possible sequel to The Old Guard beneath. Charlize Theron as a superhero in a superhero film, who would’ve thought that’d be good? The truth is, is there any agent in Hollywood who isn’t making an attempt to get their shopper forged as a superhero proper now?
They may have a job on getting Kevin James a gig, however on the price they’re going, they’ll most likely create one for him. Labored for Brie Larson, didn’t it? Low-cost shot granted. However actually, she’s showing in 90% of my tweets and I nonetheless don’t know why. Somebody ought to look it into it, that’s all I’m saying.
