Concord Korine students little doubt mourn The Entice, a revenge thriller he as soon as known as his “most bold mission” and which might’ve starred Benicio Del Toro, Robert Pattinson, Al Pacino, Idris Elba, and James Franco. He clearly hasn’t forgotten: almost a decade since its collapse, Korine will, per Variety, resurrect The Entice as an anime function supported by his EDGLRD imprint. Right here’s how the official synopsis went in 2015, and would possibly nonetheless play when a brand new model hits screens:
Rico (Elba) is on the prime of his profession and about to take pleasure in a triumphant evening on the Grammy Awards when Slim (Del Toro) is launched from jail after 14 years. Slim is set to actual revenge after studying that Rico not solely achieved fame and fortune but additionally married his girlfriend and raised Slim’s son as his personal. Slim’s plot consists of recruiting a crew of Uzi-wielding surfers led by Max (Pattinson), in addition to enlisting the assistance of Rico’s cocaine-happy supervisor (Franco). Pacino will play Slim’s parole officer.
Since final 12 months we’ve identified about Korine’s Child Invasion, a home-invasion thriller filmed à la first-person shooters and that includes bandits with child heads––one way or the other not a gag (or not that form of gag), seemingly imminent. A lot as Aggro Dr1ft emerged at Venice, TIFF, and NYFF, that movie’s anticipated to make a fall-festival look, nearly definitely with Korine carrying a child masks on crimson carpets.
Ever busy, he’ll additionally roll cameras on a comedy “pulled from an earlier script, although extra particulars are hazy” that performs with motion-capture and “digital creation” tech. One hopes, even prays (maybe in whispered voiceover) that that is the mission Terrence Malick wrote for him.
