Two Films For Spielberg In 2009
FilmSchoolRejects.com reports that Spielberg’s Tintin is expected to go into production this September and the motion-captured film will be the first animated film he’s been at the helm of.
After that it’s on to his long-in-development Lincoln which will most likely star Qui Gon as Honest Abe. Variety claims that Spielberg has told the German weekly magazine FOCUS that he will return his attention to the epic project about the 16th president for a DreamWorks film that could begin filming possibly by early next year. Screen Daily reports that Spielberg will begin shooting the biopic at the beginning of 2009 “so that it can also open in the same year as Lincoln’s 200th anniversary which comes round then.”
So start cashing in your tin cans and saving your pennies because it’s a good guess we’ll be buying tickets for Tintin next summer and Lincoln in December of ‘09.
