Steven Spielberg and Tintin




Steven Spielberg procured an option on the rights to the Tinitn characters before Hergé died in 1983. Herge was not too keen on Spielberg's proposed Tintin adaption because Speilberg did not plan to direct!

Dreamworks bought the film rights to the Tintin series in 2002. Spielberg decided that a live action version would not be able to capture the essence of the books, and decided to use motion capture instead, and along with Peter Jackson plans to make a Tintn trilogy....
