Rumor: Aronofsky’s next with George Clooney


Darren Aronofsky broke hearts around the world on March 17th 2011. I’m not convinced that I will ever be able to forgive this travesty of a decision he made on that fateful day as I think it was an insult to the Aronofsky-nites X-tremists loyal fans of his work and his potential future endeavors. I do on the other hand think one particular potential project that’s currently being rumored is fascinating as hell and even includes George Clooney.

Two months after Darren Aronofsky announced that he wouldn’t be making The Wolverine, Vulture has learned that the Black Swan director has set his sights on a new film: a fifteen-year-old original sci-fi spec script called Human Nature by a little-known screenwriter named Jeff Welch. We hear that George Clooney is attaching himself to star as a man who is cryogenically frozen and wakes up years later to a world in which humans have become pets of another species.

This almost sounds like Planet of the Apes. What species is doing the enslaving? It sounds fascinating on paper, and I have faith that Aronofsky has the potential to give us a fun sci-fi movie with the Clooney man, but it sounds like Planet of the Apes and I’ve already set my sites on one “enslaved humans” movie, that looks really good, and I can’t even begin to compute this one onto the radar. I will always appreciate Aronofsky for giving us Requiem for a Dream and more, but he still has a lot of making up to do as far as I’m concerned. I’ll be sure to share news of whatever he finally chooses as his next project.
