Besson Announces / Cancels Retirement on "Arthur" Sequel
The evidently schizophrenic filmmaker Luc Besson interrupted an interview about his retirement to tell folks that, well, if "Arthur and the Minimoys/Invisibles" does well at the box office, then he'll come back to direct a sequel.
From Production Weekly: "Luc Besson is reconsidering returning behind the camera despite a recent interview announcing his retirement from directing. If the adaptation of his novel “Arthur and the Minimoys” finds an audience he will begin work on adapting the second book, “Arthur And The Forbidden City,” for the big screen with a shooting start date as early as June. The film will be released on December 13 in France and stars the voices of Madonna, Snoop Dogg and David Bowie for the English version and Mylene Farmer, Alain Bashung and Marc Lavoine in the French version."
