Elton John, David Furnish team up for alien flick

Washington, Feb 18 (ANI): Legendary musician Elton John has teamed up with his partner David Furnish to produce a rather nonconformist alien flick, which will show aliens mixing with Jane Austen characters.

While the Rocket Films production company bosses have given the venture, which will show an extraterrestrial space-craft landing in 18th century Britain, a green signal, Furnish seems thrilled to begin working on the flick aptly titled 'Pride and Predator'.

"It felt like a fresh and funny way to blow apart the done-to-death Jane Austen genre by literally dropping this alien into the middle of a costume drama, where he stalks and slashes to horrific effect," Contactmusic quoted Furnish as saying.

Elton will take care of the flick's soundtrack, and executive produce the movie, which begins filming in London later this year (09).

Meanwhile, Elton was in news for reportedly making a guest appearance on rap icon Eminem's comeback album. (ANI)
