Coppola hopes to continue to go against the grain with his next film, the long-gestating “Megalopolis,” which would mark his first film since 2011’s “Twixt.” He says he is hoping to shoot it in the fall, but notes, “If you choose to make a movie against the grain, it’s harder to get financed but it plays for 50 years.”It’s been reported that Coppola is planning on investing $120 million of his own money, having sold a portion of his hugely successful wine empire. While little is known about the film’s plot, Coppola will say this: “I’m going to make ‘Megalopolis’ and I tell you that people are going to be scratching their heads saying, ‘Wow, it has so much in it that we didn’t understand at first that we understand now.’ That’s my hope.”
