It will soon be a year since the live-action film adaptation of “Alita: Battle Angel” was released in theaters worldwide. While the fate of “Alita: Battle Angel 2” is still undecided, not all is lost yet with many source materials that could be used to build the plot for Alita’s next adventures.
‘Alita: Battle Angel 2’: VFX supervisor confirms there’s plenty of source materials for the sequel’s plot
Video effects supervisor Richard Baneham, for the first film, is the latest to weigh in on the future of “Alita: Battle Angel 2.” While he did not rule out the possibility of having a sequel, he reminded fans that they still need to convince Disney to make it happen.
“We’ll say what we did to the last person who said that to us. Please go tell them on the lot to go,” Baneham told Insider while pointing to the Walt Disney Studios compound when asked about “Alita: Battle Angel 2.” Baneham is also known for his works on “Avatar” for which he won an Oscar.
On the bright side, Baneham confirmed that they would not run out of ideas for the plot of “Alita: Battle Angel 2” saying, “There is a very rich world of material to be tapped into.” The movie is based on the cyberpunk manga series “Gunnm” created by Yukito Kishiro that ran from 1990 to 1995 with over 50 chapters.
The fate of ‘Alita: Battle Angel 2’ now depends on Disney
Several people who worked on the first movie have provided have been positive about the possibility of working again on a sequel. While they are looking forward to releasing a second film as much as fans do, the decision is at the hands of Disney. But the company has yet to address demands for the making of “Alita: Battle Angel 2.”
Baneham’s response just confirms that “Alita: Battle Angel 2” is still in limbo. But he also made it clearer to fans that Disney is now the company to convince that the sequel is worth their investment.
Rosa Salazar, who played to the titular protagonist, said the same thing about “Alita: Battle Angel 2” shortly after the first movie’s release. In late 2019, co-producer Jon Landau also reiterated that making the sequel happen is now Disney’s decision to make. The first movie was released under the 20th Century Fox. The company, however, was acquired by Disney for $71 billion in March 2019.
