Back in April, director Robert Zemeckis (Beowulf) revealed that he's considering making a sequel to "Who Framed Roger Rabbit."
He now tells MTV News that he has already met with actor Bob Hoskins, star of the original film, about reprising his role of private investigator Eddie Valiant. "He loves Eddie Valiant and he would love to do it," Zemeckis said. "We talk about it and it's something we are thinking about."
But when MTV caught up with Hoskins, he said that he has no plans of returning for a "Roger Rabbit" sequel. "The thing is, you act with cartoons, you got to be able to bounce off the walls like a cartoon," he explained. "So I'm too old. I'm too old now."
So even though Zemeckis wants the 66-year-old Haskins in the new installment, it seems that he will have to find another actor. "I think he could do a sequel," said Hoskins. "He wouldn't be able to do it with me. I'm too old!"
