Heavy Metal

In today's second remake news, plans are afoot for a revival of Heavy Metal, the 80's animated fantasy film. This new version is intended to be a portmentau effort , under the supervision of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle creator Kevin Eastman. The film, like the original, will be R rated.

The biggest news on the project however is that David Fincher has been tapped to direct one of the segments, which opens up some interesting possibilities as to what the Fight Club auteur will produce in the animated medium. Other big name directors will apparently be announced in the near future
