“How lucky am I to get to play something like this?” Daniel quipped to People. “That’s all I can think of when I think about this character. I mean, I’ve played [James] Bond and now I’m suddenly playing Benoit Blanc. It’s dumb luck. I’m very lucky.”
When asked whether or not he’ll return for a potential fourth movie in the franchise, Daniel said, “Listen, I don’t know. Rian [Johnson] hasn’t written anything because we’re getting this movie out.”
The actor went on to say that if returning to the franchise would be an “easy decision” for him if Rian writes a script for another movie that’s as good as the first three have been.
