Elektra director Rob Bowman tells IGN FilmForce that hes keen to make a sequel to Elektra but only if its "all-out action," "ass-kickin'" and "R-rated".
Thing is, does Marvel even get a polly waffle about that franchise? "I don't know if it will happen. It's up to them to decide," says Bowman. "I think they would at least listen to it."
The comic-book character was always intended to form the frame of an ultra-violent R rated movie, says Bowman, not a chicken-**** G rated crapfest. "Because, really, she's an R-rated character. I mean, it's even worse in some of the comic books. The shelves are stacked with very, very aggressive, very sexy Elektra comic books. It is what it is. It's like, sex and murder, that's her thing."
The sequel would pick up at the very end of Elektra, where our heroine exits the house. She's changed a girl's life for the better, and has learned to be more compassionate. However, "That's no different than actually just stepping out of rehab. It's no different than coming out of the hospital with a cast on your arm."
