Shane will never make another movie again pal

W-why not?

no money

>In 2009, David Sullivan, one of the leads in Primer, tweeted that "Shane Carruth's next project, A Topiary, is in the early stages of pre-production".[8] Filmmaker Rian Johnson tweeted that it would feature a "mind-blowing sci-fi script."[9] In 2010, several news sources reported that A Topiary was in the works and that the script had been written. There was already a website for the movie[10] which, according to Carruth in an interview to io9, "The website for now is just a place mark as financing has yet to be completed. I'm cautiously optimistic that this can happen soon and couldn't be happier with the filmmakers that have committed to the project so far."[11] However, the film (which Entertainment Weekly described as "a sci-fi epic about a group of kids who build a giant, animal-like creature") stalled, and in early 2013, Carruth told EW that it was "the thing I basically wasted my whole life on."[3] Carruth no longer pursues the project; some VFX test footage of the film is visible in Upstream Color in a scene when a character is examining the video for technical flaws.[12]

>Carruth was rumored to have consulted on time-travel sequences for filmmaker Rian Johnson's Looper, though it was later revealed that those sequences were deemed too expensive to shoot.[13][14] In an "Ask Me Anything" session on the site Reddit, Johnson said "He gave some notes on the script but wasn't involved beyond that, sadly."[15]

>In 2014, Carruth announced a new film, The Modern Ocean, based on international shipping and the lives of those involved.[16] On August 12, 2015, it was reported that the film was in pre-production,[17] and its ensemble cast was announced in November 2015; it will include Anne Hathaway, Keanu Reeves, Tom Holland and Daniel Radcliffe.[18] However, in an interview in 2018, Carruth noted that the film is "not gonna happen anytime soon".[19]

>Carruth was engaged to Amy Seimetz,[20] though by 2019 they had separated.[21]

JUST

1. He has no money
2. Producers don't like giving money to someone who refuses to relinquish control over being the director, writer, actor, cinematographer, composer, costume designer, etc. TLDR too many positions funneling to one person.

Name a more cucked filmmaker than Carruth. I'll wait.

A Marvel thread died for this, I hope you feel bad you fucking faggot.

Is this the Upstream Color guy? I liked that movie. I thought he was supposed to be working/had abandoned something called The Modern Ocean? Or am I getting my doomed directors mixed up.

>refuses to sell out

Not cucked at all. If Carruth wanted to be making films he could. Tons of huge Hollywood players are big fans of his (Ron Howard, Steven Soderbergh, Rian Johnson and some others that I can’t think of right now) and couldn’t get him a job directing any number of soulless franchise films but he doesn’t want to do that garbage. He has integrity and that’s respectable as hell.
