Cameron Crowe is currently in post-production on his latest Matt Damon starring drama, We Bought a Zoo, and took time to (kind of) quash those Say Anything sequel rumours.
Crowe has previously that IF he did do a sequel to one of his films, it'd probably be the classic 1989 John Cusack starrer. But the writer and director spoke to IFC and spewed: "I was very surprised that got picked up and repeated so many times…It’s a personal thing for me, that movie. It’s probably my favorite thing I’ve ever done. And the last thing I would ever dream of doing is touching something that I feel so proud about in any way. I just love the characters and I was sort of musing out loud with this really cool person that had asked the question." He then added, "I remember those characters and I keep thinking that there’s more that I could write about some of them, and not just Lloyd. If anything, it would be a side character or some story where there was some kind of linkage. I love Mike Cameron, I love the poor drunk that they drive home on the night of the grad party. As a writer, there’s just more there that I always thought, ‘Well someday.’ Maybe it’s just a short story. Maybe it’s a miniature kind of thing that I write some day."
I really love that film and part of me would love to see a sequel, but I doubt we'll ever see it. Crowe seems to be thinking out loud more than anything else.
