Last week, Pacific Rim Uprising director Steven DeKnight was asked if would ever consider or be interested in directing a Man of Steel sequel. DeKnight, who has directed his fair share of blockbusters, simply responded "Up, up and away!" which prompted a round of headlines claiming DeKnight wants to direct Man of Steel 2.
Taking to Twitter, DeKnight attempted to set the record straight, and though it still seems he would be interested in directing Man of Steel 2, it seems his first preference would be for original Man of Steel director Zack Snyder return for a sequel.
Of course, with the DCEU in flux, who knows if we're ever even going to get a Man of Steel sequel, and if we do, it's highly unlikely Snyder will return as he's taken on more of an Executive Producer / creative consultant role with DC Films following his departure from Justice League.
