Caruso Doing Thor?
September 10th, 2008 in Action, Directors, Sci-Fi
Marvel may have quite a few superhero films in the making, but so far it has failed to bring the Norse god Thor into the realm of cinema. With Matthew Vaughn leaving the project a while back, many have been speculating about who would take over the adaptation of the comic. Now, director D.J. Caruso reveals that he would be up for the gig… if Marvel wants.
“I would definitely tackle it,” he stated. “I know that they [Marvel] have a script, but there’s something, there’s a fear I have about Thor and depending on what Thor story you want to tell, whether you want to bring Thor into the modern world or if you want to go back to Asgard and get the history of what’s happening between him and his brother and dad. That’s one I’ve always been interested in and it also would be, it would be a monumental task so, I could definitely see myself getting myself into that.”
He might be up for it, but does Marvel want him for the job? “I have had some talks with Marvel about it but I have not seen a screenplay. It could be something that I am interested in.”
