After 91 days of filming, we’re over a year away from the premiere of Luc Besson’s sci-fi epic, Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.
Of course, Besson doesn’t seem threatened by Disney’s John Carter fiasco, as he and his partners at EuropaCorp are putting $180 million into the tent pole film.
Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets opens in U.S. theaters on July 21st, 2017.
In a risk-averse, source-material obsessed Hollywood, John Carter seems like a reasonable comparison to make when trying to project Valerian’s success.
