I love doing new stuff anyway – I get bored so quickly.”Īll of which means that should a sequel ever see the light of day (which is likely considering Wanted’ healthy box office), Miller won’t be interested in juggling two different universes, instead reverting to the rather tamer (trust us, the comic is dirrrty) movie translation. “And even when I’m adamant about something like this, people don’t believe me, but there is nothing else coming from Wanted.
