\"mimic<\/img><\/p>\n

At long last, the worlds of Guillermo del Toro<\/strong> and\u00a0Paul WS Anderson<\/strong> will collide!\u00a0Mimic<\/em><\/strong>, del Toro\u2019s American debut film, is now being turned into a TV series, with Anderson directing the pilot. As for del Toro, he has absolutely nothing to do with the TV show, which makes sense, since the experience of making the film was a constant battle, leading the filmmaker to disown the theatrical cut (a director\u2019s cut was eventually released on Blu-ray). In the film, mutated insects prey upon hapless humans. It\u2019s pretty gross.<\/p>\n

Deadline has the scoop on the\u00a0Mimic<\/em> TV series, which Paul WS Anderson will direct as well as executive produce with partner Jeremy Bolt<\/strong> for\u00a0Miramax Television.\u00a0Jim Danger Gray<\/strong> will also executive produce, as well as write and serve as showrunner. The series is an adaptation of the 1997 Guillermo del Toro movie of the same name, as well as a short story by\u00a0Donald A. Wollheim. In del Toro\u2019s film, a disease carried by cockroaches is killing children in New York City at an alarming rate. To combat the disease, an\u00a0entomologist (played by Mira Sorvino) creates a mutant breed of insects to introduce into the population and kill off the roaches. The mutant bugs were supposed to die off, but three years later, they\u2019ve evolved into huge monstrosities that have the ability to disguise themselves as humans.<\/p>\n

It was del Toro\u2019s first American movie, and making the film was not a pleasant experience, primarily due to interference from producers the Weinstein Brothers. \u201cI really hated the experience,\u201d del Toro later said. \u201cMy first American experience was almost my last because it was with the Weinsteins and Miramax. I have got to tell you, two horrible things happ<\/a>ened in the late nineties, my father was kidnapped and I worked with the Weinsteins. I know which one was worse\u2026the kidnapping made more sense, I knew what they wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the interference, the theatrical cut of\u00a0Mimic<\/em> has its moments, and the film eventually received a director\u2019s cut which is even better. It also spawned two direct-to-DVD sequels. del Toro wasn\u2019t involved with those, and he won\u2019t be involved with this TV series, either. \u201cThe world of insects has been a long-term fascination of mine,\u201d said Paul WS Anderson said. \u201cSo much strength and organization from such tiny creatures that have existed long before humankind and will survive long after our demise.\u201d<\/p>\n

Writer Jim Danger Gray added: \u201cMimic<\/em> explores, on its surface, the idea of insects taking over. Body horror, the anxiety of \u2018a bug\u2019 living inside of us, the death of truth, the denial of science<\/a> and the rise of personal entitlement are at the heart of our show as it examines how society is eaten alive by an invasion that is laying bare its greatest insecurities and failures.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anderson is more known for his work on schlocky but fun action genre pics, so having him at the helm here is a bit unexpected. And I\u2019m not entirely sure this concept will lend itself to a TV series, but I\u2019ll let the folks involved worry about that. Meanwhile, if you haven\u2019t seen\u00a0Mimic<\/em>, I urge you to pick up the director\u2019s cut Blu-ray, primarily because it comes with a brutally honest commentary track from del Toro in which he talks about all the ways the production went wrong.<\/p>\n
