The animated movie will be adapted from Alain Damasio‘s novel “La Horde du Contrevent,” but will be filmed in English.
Set in a futuristic world where unyielding winds threaten humanity, a special team is put together to venture to the Upper Reaches where it is thought the winds originate. We presume something more interesting is then found.

Snarkiness aside, the film will have an expansive world with various groups and races, all of which are detailed on the Forge Animation website, the production house behind the movie. Magali Helle has written one draft of the script, but another writer is expected to be brought in for re-writes.

The film will have an estimated budget of $26 million and is the first project for the newly formed production house Forge Animation. And as is usual these days, a video game is also in the works.

Another franchise. hmm....
 
Marc Caro who will be working on the film’s visual effects. Caro is best known for his visually stunning films “Delicatessen” and “The City of Lost Children,”

I'm mildly intrigued.
