Robert Rodriguez Targeting Existing Properties in New First-Look Deal With HBO Max

Robert Rodriguez is a genre friend who has directed everything from the vampire classic From Dusk till Dawn to The Faculty, Sin City, Grindhouse, and Machete, and even produced Predators.

The Austin-based filmmaker clearly had a relationship with Fox in the past, but has now inked a first-look deal HBO and HBO Max, reports Deadline. As part of the collaboration, Rodríguez will first bring projects to the cabler and streamer for potential development as original series.

Not normally news we’d run here on Bloody Disgusting, but there’s an extremely interesting quote from Rodriguez:

“It’s intriguing to be able to tap into the wealth of iconic IP available across the WarnerMedia portfolio and explore new stories to tell.”

He adds: “I’m looking forward to a meaningful collaboration with the high caliber creative talent at HBO and HBO Max who have proven they’re willing to take risks, challenge norms and tell inclusive stories while producing a wide breadth of quality content.”

What Rodriguez is essentially saying here is that he’s wanting to explore existing properties and put his own, fresh spin on them. In layman’s terms, an existing property could be anything from A Nightmare on Elm Street to Final Destination – essentially anything Warner Bros. has the rights to. Warners/New Line Cinema has quite a few horror properties in their library – fingers crossed that Rodriguez plays in our sandbox once again. Shit, he did just tease a brand new From Dusk till Dawn animated series

In related news, just last week, Rodriguez made a deal with Cinedigm to reboot his El Rey Network for streaming.

Given that Netflix really is the master of their own data, how many times a viewer streams The Ridiculous 6, or what films don't get watched all the way straight through, or how many times someone watches an episode of Bill Nye Saves the World, it was easy for them to come up with the list based on just one percentage: 70 percent.
