/Film reports that Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson are planning to direct a trilogy based on the Tintin comics. Done right, this could really be cool. In case you’ve never heard of Tintin,
Tintin and Snowy (original French language names: Tintin et Milou), a journalist and his canine companion, are a pair of adventurers who travel around the world in The Adventures of Tintin, a series of comic books drawn and written by the Belgian cartoonist Georges Remi, better known as Hergé. The series is one of the most popular comic book series in Europe, especially in Belgium, France, and Germany.
I remember gleefully borrowing and reading all of the comics from the library when I was a kid, so I’m holding out hope that this will be done right by Spielberg and Jackson…
