James Cameron Joins The Team For A New Heavy Metal

Kevin Eastman’s brand new version of the 1981 film version of “Heavy Metal” already had a crazy group of talents set to direct segments based on the Sci-Fi comic featuring, as I best remember, awesome Sci-Fi boobage. Those ready to direct include Zack Snyder (Watchmen), David Fincher (Seven, Fight Club, Ben Button), Mark Osborne (Kung Fu Panda), and Gore Verbinski (Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy) Add to this list Mr. James Cameron, who will co-exec produce and also direct a segment.

David Fincher, Others to do Heavy Metal Animated Movie

Well forgot those, because they’re making another “Heavy Metal”, to be based on the ’70s sci-fi fantasy magazine of the same name. This latest “Metal” animated movie has some big guns behind it, too — namely director David Fincher, who along with 8 (or 9, they still haven’t settled on the total yet) other filmmakers, will be contributing individual segments to the movie, to be produced by Fincher, Kevin Eastman, and Tim Miller. Best news? They’re looking at an R-rated movie.
