Der har svirret rygter om en Monster Hunter-film i meget lang tid nu, men takket være en ny rapport fra Deadline, ved vi nu at projektet så småt er ved at blive til noget. Faktisk har Resident Evil-instruktøren Paul W.S. Anderson skrevet sig op til at instruere.
"The central characters are very relatable American characters. You take a person from the ordinary world who thinks they're in a dead end job, they have no future, they feel like their life's a failure, it's going nowhere, like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix. It's about a normal American who gets dragged into this parallel world, this Monster Hunter world. Then eventually the parallel world ends up coming to our world. So you have the creatures from the Monster Hunter world invading our world."
"It's definitely intended to be a franchise, because the movie starts in our world, and then it goes to the Monster Hunter world, and then the final act comes back to our world, and it's basically this epic battle in and around LAX. Then at the end we're suddenly confronted with the fact that the mythological creatures of our world have come back to wreak vengeance. So we definitely have the second film where that would be planned out."
Et nyt stykke concept art fra filmen er inkluderet herunder. Hvad synes du om hele retningen?
