Next for Peter Jackson?
So KING KONG has finally hit theaters, a modern-day masterpiece that proves Peter Jackson is a big player and here to stay. What's next on his agenda? In a change of pace from his recent spate of blockbusters, Jackson and his creative partners, Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, will make THE LOVELY BONES. Based on the best-seller by Alice Sebold, BONES is the story of a fourteen year old girl who is raped and murdered, and then as a ghost, watches how her family and loved ones, as well as the murderer, go on with their lives. This story at E! Online gives some details on their purchase of the book's rights, nearly a year ago.
