Voltron Gets A Director

And I'll form the head! Unknowing to me, apparently the awesome 80's staple Voltron has got a movie. Not only that, but a director has been hired! Latino Review says:

So last week we got the official word that Voltron was put into turnaround, that Relativity picked it up to make it on the cheap ala 300, and that a director was going to be announced within a week. Well, guess what? Here he is… MAX MAKOWSKI “Huh? Who the fuck is that?!” you just said? So did I.

Who the fuck is that indeed. After a quick IMDB background check, I have discovered he is pretty much a complete unknown, with unknown episodes of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy being his most recognizable work.

Now alot of people are probably going to be bitching about having an unknown actor direct such a movie like Voltron, which I'm sure is close to alot of people's hearts. But I think this is a good thing! In Hollywood, it's hard as fuck to be able to get a good movie deal, as you have to establish yourself before you can get good deals. But how can you establish yourself if you don't have any deals? So whenever I see an unknown get a good deal, I'm happy that at least someone has beat the system and gotten a good movie. Besides, he won some awards at Sundance a couple years back, so relax!

Voltron, represent!
