Multi-Segment Heavy Metal Animated Film In The Works By Newsferatu, Writer Monday, March 17, 2008 @ 8:12 PM
1970s-era sci-fi fantasy magazine Heavy Metal will be the inspiration for a Paramount Pictures animated film, led by director David Fincher.
The magazine was known for erotic and violent storylines and images, and introduced the work of American artists and writers - including Robert Silverberg, Harlan Ellison and H.R. Giger.
Eight or nine different segments will be created for the film, each with a different director.
Fincher will helm one, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman (also now owner and publisher of Heavy Metal) will direct another. Tim Miller of Blur Studios will animate the likely R-rated and adult-themed movie.
Producers will be Fincher, Eastman and Miller, with more directors to be announced by the studio soon.
Heavy Metal already was turned into a 1981 animated feature with a 2000 sequel
