Recently Luc Besson confirmed that as he had said before, after directing ten films (actually eleven) his story was told and he wouldn't be directing again. I found that hard to believe, especially with such a superb eye for visually rich cinema, well now he's backtracking on that slightly and saying he might well do it again.

"I made 10 films and I never would have imagined being able to do that when I was young. It's the end of a cycle, that's certain. If I don't direct any more films, that's fine. I've said what I had to say. But, I am not an idiot. If someone shows me a good script, I'll direct it,"

From Screen Daily through Coming Soon.

Well if he can create a final film such as the beautiful Angel-A (review), then I hardly think he should be calling it quits just yet. No big surprise here, and it's interesting that he's still writing and producing anyway, so if he writes a great script he might direct...ermm...that's business as usual then isn't it?
