Peter Jackson returns to directing — next movie is "Tintin 2"

https://www.goldderby.com/film/2026/tintin-peter-jackson-ready-to-direct-feature-film/

"Fran and I have been writing a script for the next Tintin film because 15 years ago, Steven Spielberg directed a Tintin film and I produced it," Jackson exclusively tells Gold Derby. "The idea was that then I was supposed to go straight onto a second one, and we'd swap the roles, so I'd direct the second one and he'd produce it. It's just taken 15 years to get there, unfortunately, a bit late. But it's a timeless story. So we just wrapped up. So probably the next film that I'd actually direct is a Tintin movie."

First one was excellent. Interested to see what Jackson and WETA will do in the driver's seat this time around.

Ditto, loved the first one. I went into it not knowing what to expect, but absolutely loved it. The animation style, the atmosphere, the story, all tied together so well.

Hopefully a sequel will do the first one justice.

Hopefully less uncanny animation for starters, and less silly humour like belcing into a fuel tank.

He’s going to break it into 3 separate four hour film though. /s

If each is as good as the first one, I'd be fine with that.

Finally. Been waiting way too long for this.
