Less Than Zero author Bret Easton Ellis has said it would be "really funny" to see Robert Downey Jr return in a movie version of his latest book.


Downey Jr, 44, starred in the 1987 film version of Ellis' book Less Than Zero, and Ellis has revealed he is writing a sequel to the book, called Imperial Bedrooms.


He said: "What I'm working on now is a sequel to Less Than Zero. It's coming out next year, in May 2010."


He added: "The cast is still around, so it would be really funny to see [them film a sequel]."


But Ellis said the latest book is more "dramatic" and looks at the characters' relationships since the end of the last book.


He said: "And this book is pretty dramatic, in terms of how complicated the relationships have gotten in the last 20 years."


In the first book, the characters' lives are full of drugs, drinking and one-night stands but Ellis admitted the main characters will return in the second book. He said: "It's in present day. You'll find out where all the characters from the book have now ended up, for better or for worse."


He added: "I first thought [they'd be dead] when I started thinking about it; when I began to outline the book and figure out who's going to be around and who's not - some of the main people are going to be okay."
