The director of "District number 9" will help release a full-length version of the NF-film "The Leviathan"
Last week, the awesome short-length fiction film "The Leviathan" was posted on YouTube. The film shows the hard life of people who collect some exotic substance on another planet. Everything would be fine, but not only humans live here, but also giant creatures like earthly whales. Unlike terrestrial whales, alien leviathans do not differ in peaceableness. And if we consider that the exotic substance is extracted from the eggs of these creatures, the situation ceases to seem fabulous.
In a short time, the video gained 1.5 million views, becoming one of the most viewed videos of the week. Now Neil Blomkamp, ​​director of District 9, plans to release a full-length version of this film. In this, he will be helped by Simon Kinberg, the ex-producer of the latest film "X-men."

However, for the time being it is impossible to talk about any clear plans, since money is needed for filming. Now the funds are planning to ask Fox for the studio, but there is no guarantee that the studio will give money.
I would like to hope that the funds will be found, since the film may turn out to be not only interesting, but very spectacular, spectacular - with due attention of good scriptwriters.
By the way, the script for the short film was written by Jim Uhls, who at one time adapted the “Fight Club” script for the film.
