King Shot is an unrealized film by Alejandro Jodorowsky. It was to have been co-produced by David Lynch and was scheduled for release in 2010. The cast included Nick Nolte, Asia Argento, Marilyn Manson, Udo Kier, and Santiago Segura. In a November 2009 interview with The Guardian, Jodorowsky revealed the project had been cancelled due to lack of funding.[1]

Jodorowsky described the film, which would have been his first since the 1990 film The Rainbow Thief, as a "metaphysical gangster movie." The story was set in a casino in the desert and involved gangsters, the discovery of a man as big as King Kong, and Marilyn Manson as a 300 year old pope.
