The filmmaker, whose new movie The Mechanic opens in cinemas on Friday, told Crave Online that he is hoping to convince star Nicolas Cage to make the follow-up with him.
"It'd be great. It's a matter of getting everybody together," said West. "There's so many people involved and it's about getting everybody to agree. But I'm going to bring it up to Nic. I'm going to put a bug in his ear about it. If the two of us want to do it, we'll go after the others."
