Peter Jackson on Halo animated series?

Posted by dailypop on June 11, 2007

With the feature film apparently dead in the water, rumor is that Lord of The Rings director Peter Jackson (in direct collaboration with Bungie) is behind an animated Halo series.

The story is a bit confused, but we could see more right before Halo 3 hits the racks next Autumn.


Last year, the story from Peter Jackson was very different.

“My vision,” Peter Jackson said, “together with Microsoft Game Studios, is to push the boundaries of game development and the future of interactive entertainment. From a movie-maker’s point of view, it is clear to me that the Xbox 360 platform is the stage where storytellers can work their craft in the same way they do today with movies and books but taking it further with interactivity.”

Could the animated series be related to this interactive model?

Time will tell.

The images keep coming in from next year’s Batman sequel, “The Dark Knight.”

The motorcycle is an unusual vehicle not seen in the movie franchise yet (unless you count Batgirl’s bike from Batman and Robin… which I don’t.

Pretty snazzy!

For a zoom down memory lane, here are pics of the Batcycle 1966 Batman TV Show

The interesting thing is that Hot Wheels made a batcycle for the Batman Begins line a few years back… pretty similar, eh?
