CULTURE: Ghostworld's Daniel Clowes Teams up with Michel Gondry. Awkward Filmic Moments to Ensue.

SG's very own Daniel Robert Epstein spoke this morning with acclaimed filmmaker Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind) and got a juicy tidbit about his upcoming film, Master of Space and Time, based on the novel by Rudy Rucker and set to star Jack Black.

According to Gondry, Daniel Clowes, the master behind such screenplays and graphic novels as Ghost World and Eightball, will pen the script.

Clowes' involvement with the project had not been previously announced.

Stay tuned to the SG interview section for Daniel Robert Epstein's full interview with Gondry.

Eeep!

I love Ghost World, and that is all

It'll be interesting to see how Clowes adapts material that is not his own.

Michel Gondry is one of the greatest music video directors ever and if you don't own the set of his work, you're missing out. And yes, Dan Clowes kicks all kinds of ass too.

However, I would like to point out that Clowes' second screenwriting attempt, Art School Confidential, is not getting very favorable reviews.
