In 2019, filmmaker Robert Rodriguez teamed up with James Cameron to present Alita: Battle Angel, a cyberpunk adaptation of the 1990 manga classic Battle Angel Alita.
In an interview with Forbes, Rodriguez hinted that the franchise might find new life on a streaming platform, and is optimistic that Alita: Battle Angel 2 may happen on #Disney+..
Previously, Christoph Waltz had hinted that the reason the sequel might not get made is because the Alita: Battle Angel franchise does not fit in with Disney’s brand.
Alita: Battle Angel was always meant to be the start of a new franchise.
