PETER JACKSON

The director - celebrated for his digital wizardry in giant ape film KING KONG - will produce a series based on the Halo video game franchise, but admits he's still not sure how it will work.

He says, "Technology is at a point where we can blend a lot of film storytelling with interactive entertainment.

"We are right on the threshold of a new way of telling stories... (but we still need to) work out how to do it."

The announcement was made at a convention in Barcelona, Spain, yesterday (27SEP06).
