Brandon Cronenberg Directing Space Horror Movie ‘Dragon … – Bloody Disgusting

Yes, hes David Cronenbergs son. And hes a damn good filmmaker in his own right.

Variety reports tonight that Brandon Cronenberg will follow-up his excellent debut feature Antiviral(above) with Dragon, an epic sci-fi thriller that the Canadian filmmakerdescribes as being likean adaptation of an imagined Philip K. Dick novel. He adds that the film will explore the pleasures of space horror in a satirical and at times psychotic universe.

Set in the near future, Dragon envisions a society radically changed as a result of discovering ancient organic lifeforms drifting through the cosmos, whose alien biochemistry has been processed to create a hugely profitable drug that acts as an opiate of the masses. The film follows a captain and her crew as they hunt these dragons in deep space, seeking to secure a comfortable future.

Cronenberg will co-write the project with Marvel Comics writer Dan Abnett.

Shooting is expected to begin in mid-2018, with Luc Roegs Independent and Martin Katzs Prospero Pictures producing.
