Han skrev Dödligt vapen, Den siste scouten, polerade manuset i Rovdjuret, satte ihop Iron Man 3 och Kiss Kiss Bang Bang och är nu bioaktuell som manusförfattare och regissör bakom Russell Croew-komedin The Nice Guys. Vi pratar såklart om Shane Black och i intervju med Deadline Hollywood har han nu pratat lite om manuset till Dödligt vapen 5.
Shane Black
"I wrote a 62-page treatment with my friend Chuck for Lethal Weapon 5 that would've been, I think, a very good movie. It was interesting. It was essentially an older Riggs and Murtagh in New York City during the worst blizzard in east coast history, fighting a team of expert Blackwater guys from Afghanistan that's smuggling antiquities. And we had a young character that actually counter-pointed them. But I didn't wanna do what people do when they're trying to transition which is, they sorta put the two older guys in the movie, but really it's about their son! And he's gonna take over and we're gonna do a spinoff. Fuck that, if they're gonna be in the movie, they're gonna be in the movie, I don't care how old they are."
Huruvida filmen kommer att bli av eller inte framgår inte. Vad tycker du, låter det som en vettig story i Dödligt vapen 5?
