Heavy Metal Magazine, the American science fiction and fantasy publication known for its dark, dystopian, steampunk and even explicit comic style, is looking to expand into the film and TV production space.
Heavy Metal will work with Range Media Partners to co-produce projects based on its existing IP dating back 44 years. The magazine’s Moebius-style artwork, pioneered by artist Jean Giraud, has inspired science fiction film classics like “Blade Runner,” the original “Alien” graphic novel, “Fifth Element” and, of course, its namesake, the 1981 animated cult film “Heavy Metal.”
