The Saw II director said he wants to take the Irish monster back to the "old west" for the seventh outing.
He told MTV News: "I would do Leprechaun in a second. If Lionsgate is listening, give me Leprechaun.
“It’s just one of those fun popcorn movies. I would love to bring back the fun popcorn movie - extreme violence, extreme absurdity - but make it fun."
The original 1992 film, which starred Jennifer Aniston and Warwick Davis, spawned five sequels.
Talking about his idea for the next instalment, Bousman said: “You send him in a time machine and transport him to the old west. There are gold rushes. There are gunfights. It’s awesome! I have the whole thing already worked out!”
It was recently reported that Bousman is in line to direct a remake of 1980 horror film Mother's Day. His previous credits include the last three Saw movies and the upcoming Repo! The Genetic Opera.
