Luc Besson teases “Valerian” in behind-the-scenes picsFebruary 5, 2016 - 11:01 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - It's more than a year until audiences will get a chance to see the finished Valerian, Luc Besson's return to high space opera SF following 1997's The Fifth Element, but in the meantime, the director is offering tantalizing teases of what to expect, The Hollywood Reporter said. The movie — an adaptation of a 1960s French comic strip about a time traveling cop protecting the timestream created by Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mezieres — features an eclectic all-star cast including Ethan Hawke, Rihanna, Herbie Hancock, Suicide Squad's Cara Delevingne and Clive Owen. Dane DeHaan will play the title role. Besson is writing and directing the adaptation, currently in production, as well as using social media to act as the project's hype-man, sharing images of sets and cast on Instagram.
