Ever wished there was a movie that mixed Ancient Egypt, dinosaurs and turn of the century France? Well, you’re in luck as Luc Besson’s latest movie will fulfil your very specific wish.
Set in pre-World War I Paris and based on a comic strip, The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec charts the adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec, a novelist turned investigative reporter on the trail of a Pterodactyl and an Egyptian mummy.
Probably.
The trailer is in French – and contains a snippet of bare breasts, hence the NSFW tag – so it’s a little hard to make out what’s going on; Adele could be in the employ of the mummy for all I know, but despite the language barrier the film looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun.
The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec is released in France on April 14th and hopefully will get an international release not long after.
