Brandon Cronenberg’s Next Film Might Be Space-Horror Movie ‘Dragon’

January 28, 2023 Jordan Ruimy

A THR interview with Brandon Cronenberg has the filmmaker revealing that he’s already working on his next movie which will take place in space and be part of the horror genre. Count me in:

I’m sort of doing both. I have a space horror movie film called Dragon that I’ve been working on for a number of years that might happen. And I’m also adapting a novel called SuperCannes as a limited series. It’s not really sci-fi or horror, it’s more of strange detective story. I’m not sure if either of those things will happen ultimately but that’s what I’m working on.

I did a little digging on “Dragon” and found out that Cronenberg was teaming up with Marvel Comics writer Dan Abnett for this one. Abnett co-created Marvel’s new iteration of “Guardians of the Galaxy” in 2008, which became the source material for James Gunn’s hit movie franchise.

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.

“Dragon” was supposed to be made in 2017, just as Cronenberg Junior was coming off the release of “Antiviral”, but something happened, clearly a delay of sorts and the project got pushed aside. Now that he’s a bigger directorial name, it seems as though he has the necessary funds to make, what looks to be, his biggest-budgeted film yet.
