Kanye has some big ideas.

Remember that time he took over Cannes to debut Cruel Summer with a movie that played on seven screens of different sizes all at the same time inside an all-white pyramid on the beach?

Kanye also has some crazy ideas.

Remember that time he said, “When you hear about slavery for 400 years. For 400 years?! That sounds like a choice!”

It turns out, one of his wild, big ideas that never came to fruition was a series of pornographic films featuring The Life of Pablo as their score.

According to NME, the movie was to be a collaboration with literary enfant terrible Bret Easton Ellis.

Known for publishing Less Than Zero when he was only 21 (and following that up with the hugely successful American Psycho), Ellis went on to make his directorial debut with The Canyons, a critically panned film starring Lindsay Lohan.

Ellis spoke about the porn project on his podcast.

The two men are friends and have collaborated before; Ellis helped created promotional material for Yeezus, a short film parodying the writer’s American Psycho that starred reality stars popular at the time of the album’s release:

While the adult film project never quite got off the ground, Ellis claims Yeezy-approved porn movies may still be on the way.

The writer said he went to the Kardashian-West compound in Calabasas to talk with the artist about reviving the project not long ago and also took some time to defend Kanye’s recent behavior.

“In the five years I had known him, I had never seen him this focused, this together,” Ellis said, arguing that ‘Ye is an artist at the top of his game, not a “drugged-out freak gibbering on Twitter.”
