    Deadline:

    Tom DeLonge, former frontman of punk rock band Blink-182, is to make his directorial debut with a coming-of-age sci-fi feature film Monsters of California.

    DeLonge, who has, in recent years, been getting more attention due to his passion for UFOs, is directing the film based off an original script that he wrote with Ian Miller. […]

    Monsters of California is a coming of age adventure with a science fiction twist that follows teenager Dallas Edwards, played by Samson, and his derelict friends on a quest for the meaning behind a series of mysterious, paranormal events in Southern California. The truths they uncover begin to unravel extraordinary secrets held tightly within the deepest levels of the Government.

    Hopefully it doesn’t turn out half-assed like his signature miniature guitars.

    Yeah those NYT pieces with Harry Reid are very eye opening. Tom's legit.

    I agree that the NYT/Harry Reid thing was a huge eye opener. The publicity and gains he has given people in terms of understanding extraterrestrial life are hard to fathom from where we were a few years ago. The only sad part is that this news was all swallowed because our world is completely on fire from all angles and it doesn’t hit the way it would have even five years ago.

    It is amazing to see him do so well in things that clearly make him happy.

    We should all be so lucky.

    I'll be with you the whole way.

    Glad to be alive in a time Tom Delonge's releasing a full-length feature.
