| "Beat" Takeshi aka Takeshi Kitano. |
Tony Rayns: Now that you've made a Zatoichi film, do you think this will become a new franchise?
Takeshi Kitano: I'm not too crazy about the idea. Mind you, if they gave me a budget equal to a "Matrix" or "Terminator" film... I'd like to do a scene with someone firing a machine gun at Zatoichi. In slow motion, he's batting the bullets away with his sword, one by one, and then slicing them in half. It'll probably turn up in "Zatoichi III".
Tony Rayns: I heard a rumor, that Takashi Miike's project ran into trouble with some yakuza who'd been close to Shinatro Katsu [the old Zatoichi].
Masayuki Mori: The rumor I heard is that Takashi Miike wanted Zatoichi to die in his film, and Saito Entertainment wouldn't accept that.
Tony Rayns: That's very credible: Miike told me he wanted to call it "The Last Zatoichi Movie".
Takeshi Kitano: You know my worst nightmare? That they'll expect me to make a series.
lol at Kitano~ :D
