We told you back in June that Bryan Singer wanted to return to the Directors chair and helm future X-Men films. Now, at South Korea’s Pusan International Film Festival, Singer said he’s that he has discussed the possibility with 20th Century Fox.

“I’m still looking to possibly returning to the ‘X-Men’ franchise. I’ve been talking to Fox about it”

“I love Hugh Jackman. I love the cast”

Singer said he enjoyed making science fiction and fantasy movies because they allowed him to discuss serious issues through entertainment. He said the “X-Men” series, which follows a group of mutants with superpowers who struggle to fit in with humans, is about tolerance and social structures.

He said he likes to “trick audiences into thinking they’re seeing fireworks, but they’re learning about themselves and listening to what I have to say.”

“The excitement about working in science fiction and fantasy is — the stories, if they are good, are about the human condition”
