    Peter Jackson Will/Won't Be Doing Animated Halo

    Peter Jackson's Halo movie may be on ice, but that doesn't mean he's not doing Halo stuff. In an interview with game site GameSpy, Microsoft's Shane Kim apparently said the filmmaker is making an interactive, animated series. Apparently, because Microsoft PR is denying it. Anyway, here's what Kim originally said:


    Bungie is working directly with Peter Jackson on the Halo interactive series, and Bungie will definitely be involved, and continue to be involved on Halo... Bungie has their plans well mapped out. You have to, when you have a studio like that, and you need to know what you're moving your people on to. So they have the collaboration with Peter Jackson on the animated series.

    Oh cool! A Peter Jackson Halo animated series!! Not so fast says Microsoft:

    ...he [Shane Kim] was misquoted (or possibly misspoke) during the GameSpy interview, but either way, it was an error.

    And there you have it: a clusterfuck. Still, looking forward to whatever Peter Jackson and Bungie are up to. Very much so. Brian Ashcraft
