He continued: “I think André (author) is comfortable with a sequel being made. I know Luca (director) really wants it. And I know Armie and I are 1000 per cent in.”
“I think it’ll be a couple of years later,” he added.
“And I think that’s cool - to take advantage of the Boyhood style of storytelling. That isn’t done all the time.”
