Could you see yourself going back to that realm where youre dealing with a branded property and where the studio is hoping to sell a bunch of toys? Or, having done that, do you feel like youre now more interested in just doing your own original ideas?
What youre describing is a very broad category. I mean, absolutely I could see myself going back and doing something where they would make toys. I think they should make some Spitfires I think those would be great toys. [laughs]
In the broader sense, I wouldn't limit anything for myself. But no, I would not go and do another Batman film, for example. I spent 10 years doing that, and I loved it. But I need to do different things and that world needs new voices and its getting them and thats great.
To me, its all about: Do I get excited about the story? Beyond that, I dont worry too much about what it is or how it would be perceived. Because the world changes. When I did Batman Begins, as you say, the perception of what that meant was very different than what it became later on. Thats part of the fun of doing something unexpected.
