Flanigan’s Metal Hurlant Chronicles gets French broadcast, DVD release

That live-action adaptation of the sci-fi comic book Metal Hurlant we told you about last year is nearly here (story).  Stargate Atlantis‘s Joe Flanigan plays a soldier alongside Kelly Brook in one of the 30-minute episodes of the innovative anthology series.

Producers of Metal Hurlant Chronicles have reportedly had some difficulty finding international broadcasters, but they debuted the series at Comic-Con in July and are ready to premiere the series for French fans tonight on France 4.

Flanigan’s episode, “Masters of Destiny,” is set to air November 3.

Viewers in France will also be able to buy the first season on DVD and Blu-ray on November 2.

We’ll keep our ears open for U.S. and U.K. broadcasters to pick up the series. Stay tuned, and check out the short teaser and the new, full-length trailer below!
