Adventures of Tintin 2 Spoilers, News, Reveals, Review and Plot: Peter Jackson from the Lord of the Rings to Direct Upcoming Movie

The Adventures of Tintin 2 is an upcoming 3D motion capture computer animated epic adventure film based on the work of Herge. It was originally planned to be based on the comic book The Seven Crystal Balls and Prisoner of the Sun, however screen writer Anthony Horowitz has since called it into question, suggesting these films would be sequels exchanging them with another story. The director, Peter Jackson, also confirmed that he would direct the film after he finished with his latest project The Hobbit. Although the exact release date has not been set, the movie is set to be released in 2015.

The 2011 film, The Adventures of Tin Tin, was based on the comic series by Belgian cartoonist Herge and was the first movie in the series. It was directed by Steven Spielberg; produced by Peter Jackson and written Steven Moffat, Edgar Wright and Joe Cornish. The film was based on the three of Herges' works: The Crab with the Golden Claws (1941), The Secret of the Unicorn (1943) and Red Rackham's Treasure (1944). Spielberg acquired rights to produce films based on the series following Herges death in 1983. The first Tintin focused more on character development although fans believe that the roles of the beloved bumbling Thompson detectives was not very well developed as the movie mostly concentrated on Tintin and Capt. Haddock.

In December 2011, the director of the movie, Spielberg, confirmed a sequel to his 3D movie will be made and said the book to adapt had been chosen. Spielberg explained further that the Thompson detectives unlike the previous movie would have much bigger roles. Kathleen Kennedy said the script might be done by February or March 2012 and motion captured in summer 2012 so that the movie will be on track to be released on the date of schedule. The movie was however moved forward and is now set to be released in 2015. After the brilliant success of the first movie, fans' anticipation remains high as they have no idea what to expect from the latest instalment.
