After last week announcing that he would no longer direct The Green Hornet Steven Chow has now said that he might no play Kato after all.
Chow has said that timing issues are to blame because the Green Hornet schedule might conflict with a planned superhero movie with Jack Black
"
If I direct 'The Green Hornet,' the superhero comedy will have to be delayed for two years. The timing might not be right for a superhero comedy in two years. And I want to make a movie based on an original idea."
The Black/Chow project is an original idea and could be promising if Chow directs but i can't help feeling that he is in a huff because of the comedic direction the Green Hornet script was going in.
