Directors on long hiatuses you'd like to see return?
Sam Raimi recently ended his hiatus and he's confirmed another film is on the way, Ang Lee is returning with a Bruce Lee biopic, and Tim Burton's hiatus felt longer than it was but it was still noticeable, leaving me wonder who's next.
I'd love John Carpenter to return, it's been over a decade and whilst his 90s/21st century work isn't as well regarded, just one more film to end his career with slightly more dignity than Ghosts of Mars and The Ward. Perhaps controversially, I'd also like to see what George Lucas has left to offer as director. Rumours are he's just flat out done with everything and is happily enjoying retirement but imagine if he came out with a small scale film akin to THX or American Graffiti. It would break the film world I think, the guy's importance cannot be overstated.
Peter Jackson would be similar to Lucas, he seems happy doing documentaries but I hope when he does return to features it's not just for the "Search For Who Gives A Fuck We're Warner Brothers And Want Money". I'd love to see what he has to offer in today's horror landscape. Like Lucas he is forever associated with one property but given it's not actually \*his\* original work it's probably easier to separate himself from MIddle-Earth.
