Daft Punk Making Movie for Nile Rodgers, Chic Album

Nile Rodgers and Daft Punk are back at it again. The "Get Lucky" collaborators are teaming up on a new project that will this time focus on Nile Rodgers's extensive discography and his upcoming works with Chic. The "One More Time" duo has made a movie dedicated to the upcoming Chic album and everything that Rodgers has worked on over his career.

The Chic frontman posted the news on his Twitter and shared a still from the film, via Spin. He also revealed that the film should be out "within the next few weeks."

Chic announced earlier this month that they would be releasing their first album since 1992's Chic-ism later this year through Warner Bros. Records sometime around June, according to a press release. The first single, "I'll Be There," will be released March 20. Check out the teaser for the record below.

"Nile has never stopped moving forward, so I am thrilled to welcome him into the WBR family as he begins a dynamic new chapter of his extraordinary career," said Cameron Strang, the CEO at Warner Bros.

Though details are scarce about the film, as one might expect about the myserious masked French duo, one might expect to hear tracks like "Le Freak," "Like a Virgin," "I Want Your Love" and many other classics.
