Four years ago, James Cameron and Robert Rodriguez\u2019s Alita Battle Angel arrived in cinemas almost 20 years after it was first announced.<\/p>\n
Making over $405 million worldwide, it became the latter\u2019s highest-grossing movie, receiving praise from critics for its visual effects and action sequences.<\/p>\n
The cyberpunk adventure, based on the manga about a female cyborg, ended on a cliffhanger.<\/p>\n
Edward Norton made a silent cameo as Nova, the overlord of the wealthy sky city Zalem, who used Mahershala Ali\u2019s Vector as his proxy in Iron City.<\/p>\n
Since then fans have been hoping a sequel will eventually come about, with Cameron and Rodriguez having taken a virtual blood oath to make at least one. And now producer Jon Landau has the latest news on Alita Battle Angel 2.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Speaking with Screen Rant, Landau confirmed talks for the sequel are on-going.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cI’m very proud of that film, and we were doing it concurrently with Avatar. I was down with Robert [Rodriguez] on the set doing all that, and Jim [Cameron] was involved too and saw it.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt came on HBO one night, and Jim watched it and called me after he watched it. He said, ‘Jon, Alita was on, I just decided to watch it. It’s a good movie.’ (laughs) And it is! So, I want to be able to definitely do more in that world.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
It may have already been four years since Alita: Battle Angel was released but that shouldn\u2019t put off Cameron.<\/p>\n
As pointed out by the outlet, the director had seven years between the first and second Terminator movies and 13 between Avatar and its sequel last year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n[ad_2]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
