"Nope. No, not doing that movie," Waititi told reporters during the Television Critics Association winter press tour, where he's promoting FX's small-screen adaptation of What We Do in the Shadows . "For me, that’s James’ film... Going into something like that, which has got his stamp all over it, would feel like going into someone’s house and going, 'Hey, I’m your new dad...' It feels kind of awkward."The director of Thor: Ragnarok confirmed he's still "hanging out" with Marvel and "talking about new stuff, but I don’t know what that might be yet. But I want to do another movie with them." Waititi may not be venturing into the Guardians' realm , but he has stepped into a galaxy far, far away, directing an episode of The Mandalorian for the Disney+ streaming service and Jon Favreau.While he confirmed that "my tone is in there," Waititi admitted that there's less latitude to explore the kind of creative and tonal shifts that resonated with audiences in Ragnarok in Disney's new bounty hunter show. "Star Wars is very different to Marvel style. They know that the tone of the first films really should be adhered to. That’s what the fans like and you can’t really disrespect it, [which] I guess is a nicer way of saying I can’t put too many jokes in," he quipped. Gunn is reportedly in talks to write and direct DC's Suicide Squad sequel , which is expected to be more of a reboot rather than a direct continuation of David Ayer's film.
