Heavy Metal 2000 Cartoon Now

In 1981, the world was blessed with the animated horror/fantasy/sci-fi/comedy film Heavy Metal, which was directed by Gerald Potterton.

I spoke with Eastman earlier today and he elaborated on that time, saying, “ we spent about a year developing a Heavy Metal film that had seven sequences. Fincher was going to direct one, Miller was going to direct one, Guillermo del Toro was going to direct one, Zack Snyder was actually going to direct one that I wrote.” Unfortunately, the project never came to fruition for a very simple reason: money.

“ We had this wonderful team looking to do Heavy Metal, the franchise, to do it justice. We just couldn’t raise the money.” From there, Eastman met up with Robert Rodriguez ( Planet Terror, From Dusk Till Dawn), who optioned the film rights. “ We spent about two years developing it as an opportunity. But again, we just couldn’t raise the money under the new regime, which was Jeff Krelitz, myself, and the new main owner of the company.” But while things may sound dour when looking at the past, Eastman offers a lot of hope for the future. “ Interestingly enough, we’ve had a LOT of conversations within the last six, seven months about some real opportunities that I thinkI don’t want to let the cat out of the bag but you can expect some very good news on that front in the very near future, which is incredibly exciting!” Eastman gushed.
