We recently sat down with director Guy Ritchie to chat about his new film, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, what inspired him to make it, and how he tried to put a fresh spin on such an ancient tale.
We also chatted a bit about the prospects for a Sherlock Holmes 3 and Ritchie's next project, a live-action remake of Disney's Aladdin.
IGN: This is a period movie and it's not your first. Is that something you actively seek out or is it just what has attracted you at the moment?
Guy Ritchie: I think it's more or less coincidental, although I like movies to be in some way, existing in a hyper-real world and I suppose as soon as you position yourself in a period, you automatically give yourself an alibi for an exotic environment. So I'm just not into straight up and down, conventional worlds. So I suppose… yes, I'm attracted to it principally. I mean, it may be coincidence too, but you know, 'cause I grew up with Sherlock Holmes that was a thing and then because of -- this was a thing for me too – the Boorman's Excalibur. And so where, you know, Warner Brothers was kicking it about and I was kicking it about and then eventually it just sort of\ became part of the zeitgeist of what was going on there and off to the races we went.
