Paramount and Sony have confirmed that they are in talks to jointly finance Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson's motion-capture adaptation of Tintin.
According to Variety, the two studios are in discussions to jointly produce one movie based on the classic comic books by Belgian artist Hergé (real name Georges Remi).
Neither studio would comment, but both confirmed that they are in negotiations with Spielberg and each other to co-finance a single film. WETA Digital, which did the FX work for Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, will handle the motion-capture for the flick.
