Nimrod Antal’s Next Is PARAFFIN

I admit, I was one of those who doubted the plan for PREDATORS reboot, directed by Nimrod Antal. But after seeing clips, footage, featurette, anything that Fox has released so far, it’s looking more and more promising. But before Armored and Vacancy, Antal had a thriller in 2005 titled Kontroll, during that time, he already planned his next gig. He told The Playlist it’s called PARAFFIN but he wasn’t willing to reveal much about it just yet…

“I have a passion project that I’ve been writing for a few years called, “Paraffin.” I’m going to try to get that going. But at the same time I’m just keeping my options open and trying to appreciate the moment. Just open up and see what happens.”
“It’s actually the one I wanted to write and direct right after ‘Kontroll.’ So that’s what I’m doing next.”
“I can’t quite give you a storyline yet,”
“I can give you a teaser: men and women will build a boat out of plastic bottles in Cuba to escape oppression, right? So imagine if our world has become that [kind of] oppression. You aren’t building plastic bottle boats anymore, you have to build something else to get out of here.”

An escape/breakout movie.. ok, I can see potential there
But he also said he’s open to working with PREDATORS producer Robert Rodriguez again, for sequel perhaps.

By the way, PREDATORS opens next week, July 9th, 2010
