Paramount Pictures will make an animated film inspired by the '70s sci-fi fantasy magazine
Heavy Metal, with director David Fincher spearheading the project.
"
Heavy Metal" will be stamped by the erotic and violent storylines and images that remain the trademark of a magazine that debuted in the U.S. in 1977. The mag introduced the works of American artists and writers such as Robert Silverberg, Harlan Ellison and H.R. Giger.
