From Collider.com. James Cameron’s update on
Battle Angel project:
I’m obviously going to be pretty busy for the next five years and so I had to consider, do I hand this project off to another director? And then I thought, ‘No, I love it too much.’”
It’s such a rich world. What I’m going to do is take the spine story and use elements from the first four books. So, the Motorball from books three and four, and parts of the story of one and two will all be in the movie.
LEEE777 - I personally think
Battle Angel Alita couldn't be in better hands to make an amazing sci-fi spectacular. Oh yeah James cough cough, Ellen Page.
