Filmmaker Peter Jackson has confirmed to Gold Derby<\/a> that the \u201cThe Adventures of Tintin\u201d sequel will be his next directorial effort and his first studio film in over a decade (his last was 2014\u2019s \u201cThe Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies\u201d).<\/p>\n

Speaking with the outlet, he confirmed he and partner Fran Walsh recently wrapped up work on the script after previously teasing he was in the midst of it back in May at Cannes:<\/p>\n

\u201cFran 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. The idea was that then I was supposed to go straight onto a second one, and we\u2019d swap the roles, so I\u2019d direct the second one and he\u2019d produce it. It\u2019s just taken 15 years to get there, unfortunately, a bit late. But it\u2019s a timeless story. So we just wrapped up. So probably the next film I\u2019ll direct is a Tintin movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2011 film, which grossed $374 million from a $135 million budget, was loosely based on an amalgamation of three Tintin books \u2013 \u201cThe Crab with the Golden Claws,\u201d \u201cThe Secret of the Unicorn\u201d and \u201cRed Rackham\u2019s Treasure\u201d.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s widely assumed a sequel would be based on \u201cThe Seven Crystal Balls\u201d\/\u201dPrisoners of the Sun\u201d two-parter but Jackson hasn\u2019t confirmed which story or stories they are adapting for the work.<\/p>\n

Jackson and Walsh writing the script marks a change from the first film which was worked on by Steven Moffat, Joe Cornish and Edgar Wright.<\/p>\n
