After directing such genre films as 30 Days of Night, Eclipse, and one of my all-time favorites, Hard Candy, David Slade is possibly adding another comic book franchise to his resume. According to the Vancouver Sun, Slade is in the running to direct the Wolverine sequel.
“I can say that I’ve met with Hugh Jackman and he is a very nice fellow, but you never know with these things,” the director says. “There are several projects I’m interested in now, and that’s one of them.”
So he wants the job, but do you think he’d be suited best for it?

Judging by his resume so far, he knows how to direct a predatory character, and critics mostly all agreed that his contributions to the action shots were the best thing about Eclipse. I’d be more concerned about the script making sense.

HARD CANDY was a great film. Everything else he’s done since has been total shit.
