ROME (Hollywood Reporter) – Veteran erotic film director Tinto Brass, best known for his 1979 release "Caligula," said Thursday he would produce what he called the world's first-ever 3D pornographic production.
With "Avatar" recently becoming the biggest film of all time, the 76-year-old Italian filmmaker said the time is right for 3D technologies to be used to create an erotic film. He noted that the project, which he said will be the world's first 3D erotic film, will also be the first 3D film of any type made in Italy.
Brass said he plans to "revisit an abandoned project about a Roman emperor that was ruined by Americans, and go from there," a reference to "Caligula," which he has criticized because of hard-core sex scenes added during postproduction without his consent. He collaborated on that project with author Gore Vidal and Penthouse magazine publisher Bob Guccione.
Brass said he would start work on casting and the script immediately, and that he planned to start filming in May or June.
His film was "ruined" by the Americans adding hardcore sex scenes without his permission? HA!
hock:
Those were the only interesting scene in the entire movie.
I'll take John Hurt's portrayal of Caligula over this one anytime. Now there was a truly mad emperor.
:wink:
