With cult director David Sandberg's last movie – Kung Fury 2, starring Michael Fassbender and Arnold Schwarzenegger – still in limbo due to ongoing legal issues, the Swedish filmmaker now has another project in development, and it sounds suitably bonkers.
"It’s a really fun, really rich world with a lot of funny characters. It’s tonally similar to Kung Fury," Sandberg told Variety of the movie, which is being billed as a "fantasy punk" film blending action, comedy, and sci-fi.
"It’s such a crazy mishmash of stuff. There’s no movie that I can think of that’s exactly like it," he continued. "But yeah, it’s like He-Man mixed with Star Wars and Lord of the Rings and Mad Max and also Ninja Turtles… but it’s definitely gonna feel super different, I think, from anything."
Per Variety, the movie will follow a character called Dragonlord (who will be played by Sandberg). He's "a treasure-obsessed hunter whose best friend is a Tyrannosaurus Rex called Blaze Falcon. Rather than hunt for yet more treasure, however, Blaze just wants to hang out and play video games, but when he’s kidnapped by the evil Dreadmancer, Dragonlord must pull together an Avengers-like team of bonkers heroes to save his dino buddy."
