Brad Bird Reviews, Interviews & More
Brad Bird has firmly established himself as an inventive, exhilarating director with a flair for wild, intricate, and kinetic visuals that play like pure eye-candy with heart—from his animated works (The Incredibles, The Iron Giant, and Ratatouille) to his surprisingly awesome live-action debut with Mission: Impossible Ghost...
Aside from the fact that Toy Story 3 scribe Michael Arndt is writing the thing, and that Disney is producing the thing, all we know about Star Wars: Episode VII is who isn’t directing it. Steven Spielberg or Zack Snyder? Nope. Quentin Tarantino? Not happening. J.J. Abrams is a definite no, with Jon Favreau a big maybe. Matthew Vaughn? ...
The loss of Gary Ross as a director of The Hunger Games sequels has been absolutely devastating for devoted fans of burgeoning franchise.

Ever since we discovered that Tom Cruise and JJ Abrams would be returning for another Mission Impossible sequel, the question has been will Abrams just produce or also direct?
