'Baby Driver' 2? Edgar Wright has been asked to write and direct a sequel!

Despite the movie business currently being dominated by extended franchises, Edgar Wright has always refused to direct sequels, well so far — there’s the Cornetto trilogy, but Hot Fuzz can only be labeled a loose-fitting Shaun of the Dead sequel at best.

However, thanks to Baby Driver already being a massive success, Sony bosses are already asking whether the filmmaker could write and direct a sequel.

Speaking on Empire’s film podcast, as brought to our attention by Vulture, Wright revealed he ‘sort of’ has an idea for a sequel. More importantly, the director has admitted he’s tempted to actually make it.

"The studio has asked me to think about writing a sequel and it is one of the ones that I might do a sequel to because I think there’s somewhere more to go with it in terms of the characters,” he said.

“Baby has got to a new place. Most sequels you have to contrive something so they go back to square one, unless there’s somewhere deeper for them to go.

He continued to say: “I think with Baby Driver there’s more that you can do in that realm, and I sort of have an idea that if you did another you would subvert his involvement in the crime in a different way so he’s not the apprentice anymore”.

This Summer, Hollywood studios have suffered considerably because of a marketplace inundated with sequels, yet Baby Driver has fucked that trend off, having already grossed $45.9 million (£35.5 million) from a $34 million (£26 million) budget. 

Well isn't this great news! I doubt he will but it would be good if he did or maybe he should just keep it as the one, what you think?
