Lars von Trier may be as popular, or at least infamous, as he's ever been these days, with Antichrist playing the New York Film Festival and everyone curious, if not horrified, by what they're seen in it. So the Danish provocateur is taking the success and running with it, moving on to his next project, a "psychological disaster film" called Planet Melancholia.

Yes, only von Trier, or perhaps Roland Emmerich, could embark on a psychological disaster film with a straight face. According to THR, it's an English-language film budgeted at $7.4 million, which means we probably won't get to see von Trier blowing up the White House or anything. As for what he's going for with the film, he had only one thing to say: "No more happy endings!" Yes, because von Trier's work up to this point has been far too cheery to be taken seriously.

His business partner Peter Aalbaek Jensen actually had one more description for us: "[It's] "romantic, in a Lord Byron sort of way." So really, we have no idea what to expect. Just as von Trier wants it, I'm sure.
