Heavy Metal: Resurrection is a 2026 American anthology film starring an ensemble cast of actors of various nationalities. A sequel to the 1981 film produced by Ivan Reitman, the film has 10 short films in total, featuring the directors of Edgar Wright, Robert Rodriguez, Matt Reeves, Guillermo del Toro, James Cameron, Zack Snyder, David Fincher, Gore Verbinski, Tim Miller, and the Russo brothers.

A sequel was planned by Paramount Pictures that would take Heavy Metal to a more mature audience developed by Fincher, but it was scrapped early on in development due to budgetary constraints. Robert Rodriguez would then acquire the rights, which cancelled Fincher's version, however, that also took a long time to make. Alcon Entertainment later sought out a new franchise to acquire after Blade Runner, which revived Fincher's original version.
