Tintin Movies are Go!
Kathleen Kennedy, Steven Spielberg’s long-time producer, has confirmed that shooting will start in February and that it will be a trilogy. Spielberg will still direct the first and Jackson the second. The third film will be directed by either Spielberg or Jackson but no time frame has been given for the second or third films.
This is great news after the productions recent financial problems and suggestions that only two films were to be made.

Just a thought. If Dr. Krolspell is being cast in the first film, perhaps this means he’s being set up for Flight 714? If so, I wish Spielberg was directing that one. I mean it’s just up his street. Think Indiana Jones :P .
