Star Wars Episode 7: 7 Directors That Would Rock

By Barry O Halloran /

4. Matthew Vaughn

I included Vaughn for two reasons. Firstly, many insiders are saying that he has already signed on to direct two of the movies, which would explain why he exited the directors chair for the X-Men First Class Sequel 'Day's of Future Past'. While he is the favourite, I can't say I share the same enthusiasm as some of his fans. Kick-ass was a great movie as was Layer Cake, but I still think he is too raw to handle Star Wars. If he does get the gig, it would be interesting to see his interpretation and for now, he remains the most likely candidate (if Hollywood is to be believed)
