On April 30, 2026, Peter Jackson recalled Andy Serkis's arrival on a New Zealand set 26 years prior in mocap Lycra, which initially confused crew members as Serkis was not in costume and his face would not be captured traditionally. This comes as discussions on April 27 explored how cinematic graphics are revolutionizing interactive entertainment, bridging a decades-long divide between visual effects and animation industries, where visual fidelity was paramount for film. Earlier in April, on April 8, Jackson also expressed interest in developing a sequel to "The Adventures of Tintin," 15 years after its release, a collaboration with Steven Spielberg. Previously, on April 2, Forbes estimated Jackson's net worth at $1.9 billion, largely attributed to his work on "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" trilogies. On March 17, conversations in New Zealand's creative industries focused on responsible AI, examining its implications for production and job roles.
