I think I've done this topic before, but if movies can have sequels, why can't we do it with posts? What are directors who did movies that are unlike things they normally do?

Martin Scorsese - Hugo (2011)
David Lynch - The Straight Story (1999)
Francis Ford Coppola - Jack (1996)
Peter Farrelly - Green Book (2018)
