But it's funny that you mentioned Last Witch Hunter because I'm in a meeting with Lionsgate and they're actively creating the sequel to The Last Witch Hunter.'ĭoes a writer being put on a movie mean that it's going to happen? Not even a little, there are plenty of movies that wallow in development hell, but Diesel does have the Fast and Furious success behind him with Universal and his involvement with Marvel and the Guardians of the Galaxy at Disney/Marvel. 'Lionsgate is coming and saying, 'We're putting a writer on for the next one.' That's kinda cool! … And this is just recent, by the way. Diesel succeeds at the box office more than he fails and he revealed that Lionsgate is interested in doing a sequel to The Last Witch Hunter. So it sounds like Diesel has heard from fans that they liked this silly little movie that he made five years ago and he believes there is a market out there for another one of these movies. Maybe it's because I'm a part of Avengers or I'm a part of Disney, I'm a part of Guardians and I'm a part of Fast and I've had so much of that wonderful experience that I think the higher thinking becomes – when people tell me that they love the Witch Hunter, and they want to see Michael Caine and I go into another one, I go, 'Wow!'' 'As an artist, the more experienced I get, the more I am appreciating just the fact that my work somehow finds you and that you get to experience it at your own time and at your own pace, and I'm less concerned – and maybe it's because of accolades. You can do fine at the box office, like The Last Witch Hunter, and then look at streaming and VOD and more to see if maybe there is a cult following for this movie that didn't light the world on fire the first time around.

Diesel is talking about VOD, streaming, there are a million ways to watch movies these days and when you have smaller budgets you don't have to rely entirely on the box office to make back your money.
