The Adventures of Tintin II is a 2016 upcoming film to be made based on the work of Hergé.
This was originally planned to be based on The Seven Crystal Balls and Prisoners of the Sun, however screenwriter Anthony Horowitz has since called this into question, suggesting these films would be the second sequel and another story would become the first sequel.12
Peter Jackson also confirmed he will direct it once he has finished The Hobbit.1 On July 27th, 2009, Jackson stated that his favourite Tintin stories were The Seven Crystal Balls, Prisoners of the Sun, The Black Island and The Calculus Affair, but clarified that he had not decided which stories would form the basis of the second film yet. Jackson stated that it "would be great" to use Destination Moon and Explorers on the Moon as the basis for the third or fourth film in the series.3
In December 2011, Spielberg confirmed a sequel to his 3D movie will be made and said the book to adapt had been chosen.4 He explained the Thompson detectives will "have a much bigger role." The sequel will be produced by Spielberg and directed by Jackson.4 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 either Christmas 2016 or summer 2017.5
In February 2012, Spielberg revealed to Total Film that they had completed a story outline for the sequel. He also said that the film will be based on more than one book, but no more than two.6
In May 2012, Anthony Horowitz said that in Tintin II we "can expect to meet Cuthbert Calculus."7
