When Joseph Gordon-Levitt heads to Basin City later this year, all eyes will be on one of the most in-demand leading men in Hollywood, taking on his second successful comic book franchise in as many years and rumored for more.What attracted him to making Sin City: A Dame to Kill For? The same thing that attracts him to any movie, according to the actor…and the same thing that could bring him back to Batman.”For me, it’s first and foremost about a filmmaker who inspires me,” JGL told Deadline. “In the last year I have been extremely fortunate. I got to work with Rian Johnson and then Chris Nolan and then Steven Spielberg. The job I just took, Sin City 2, I did it because I just love Robert Rodriguez’s movies. And then after filmmakers, it’s the script. Sin City 2 is just a fun part to play. I have eclectic taste in movies I like to watch. This year, Django Unchained was one of my favorite movies, everyone is so good and I’m so happy for Leo because he’s a friend of mine; I know he’s hilarious and he showed that side of himself. I loved Life of Pi, and Beasts of the Southern Wild. Any of those filmmakers, Ang Lee, Quentin Tarantino or Benh Zeitlin, I’d love to be in one of their movies.”Asked directly whether he might consider a return to Gotham City to take over the Batman franchise now that Nolan is done with the Dark Knight Trilogy, the actor steered clear of making much in the way of a definitive statement for or against. Instead, he suggested that his muse would make the decision for him.”It’s not up to me,” Gordon-Levitt said. “It comes down to the same two criteria I just mentioned.”
