Luc Besson has officially started tweeting. The French director of such classics as THE FIFTH ELEMENT, LEON: THE PROFESSIONAL and NIKITA, revealed his next project in his very first tweet on the social network.
It seems that the Hollywood legend, who wrote and directed last year’s surprise smash LUCY, will return to the sci-fi drama for VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS.
My first tweet ever! Let’s share a real news! My next film is a big sci-fi: #Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets.

Besson revealed that the two main roles in the movie have already been cast, and they go to CHRONICLE star Dane DeHaan and model/ actress Cara Delevingne, who will be seen in this summer’s PAPER TOWNS and next year’s DC adaptation SUICIDE SQUAD. Besson also revealed the first logo for the movie, which will shoot in December for a 2017 release.
