In 1992, Jackson was working on a [[stop motion]] fantasy epic called ''Blubberhead'', co-written [[Danny Mulheron]]. It was described as the "missing link" between Jackson's early work and his [[The Lord of the Rings (film series)|''Lord of the Rings'' trilogy]]. He hired [[Randall William Cook]] to do the effects for the film, but it was ultimately never made.<ref>{{cite magazine|last=Eisenberg|first=Adam|url=https://www.vfxvoice.com/randall-william-cook-an-oscar-winners-journey-from-harryhausen-to-hobbits/|title=

While promoting ''[[The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies]]'' (2014), Jackson revealed to several news publications that before embarking on directing the ''[[The Adventures of Tintin (film)|Adventures of Tintin]]'' sequel, he wanted to return to his roots and make a new film set in [[New Zealand]] first. He stated that he and [[Fran Walsh]] were in the process of adapting several true stories about their native country that would be "similar in tone and scope" to ''[[Heavenly Creatures]]'' (1994). "We really want to do something now that's connected with where we live rather than something that's a [[Cinema of the United States|Hollywood]] thing," said Jackson.
