===Untitled New Zealand-set film===

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 [[Hollywood]] thing," said Jackson.
