Eclectic filmmaker Terry Gilliam is producing a new steampunk-inspired film, ‘1884’.
Written and to-be-directed by Gilliam protege Tim Ollive, ‘1884’ is a steampunk adventure that will mix puppets, miniatures, CG animation and fuse the mouths and eyes of actors onto the the little heads of the puppets.
No word on a production or release date. Check out the trailer below:
After reading Jack Kirby’s Forever People and New Gods comic books and watching 2001: A Space Odyssey, Dirk was assimilated during first grade recess into the collective known as Science Fiction. Fueled by the visions of mad scientists such as Philip K. Dick and Frank Herbert, he has quietly searched the galaxy for the next BladeRunner, Brazil and Dark City. Born in San Francisco and currently enjoying a steampunk version of Ft. Lauderdale, when not grokking Science Fiction he spends his time with family and friends and just maybe trying to enter the dreams of disingenuous politicians.
