According to a Mexican newspaper Guillermo del Toro has a script written called PLATA,which is said to be in the luchahero vein,with monsters and vampires in abundance.He is quoted as saying he wants to begin filming after completing HELLBOY 2 and hopes to have it out for 2008.The downside is he wants the main character to be portrayed by Pedro Armendariz Jr,who is too old and too fat to be a luchahero now.Unless the main character won't be a luchahero at all.Who knows.However there are plenty of guys in CMLL who could make great luchaheros if given the chance.

Wow, that would be really very interesting to see del Toro do! Of course he's rumored to be on like 12 different projects at once, so it's hard to sort out what's real and what's speculation.
I think I'd much rather see him do this than the remake of THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON.

i agree- better original concepts than tired and needless remakes.

Well seing as how little else has been said about this project it's possible that the idea fizzled out before anything real became of it.
