Artificial Intelligence has been in movies for a long time now. Also, year by year, new movies with diverse concepts come and go.
The movie Alita Battle Angel stood out in its own way.
Despite its late release, it delivered a strong performance.
Reviews were mixed, but it earned a substantial $404 million at the box office.
Fans eagerly await a sequel, especially after the first movie’s exciting conclusion.
However, there’s been no official announcement about a sequel.
The Disney/Fox merger may be the reason for the delay.
James Cameron (Producer) and Robert Rodriguez (Director) are interested in continuing the story.
Currently, Disney holds full rights to the Alita character and has not given the green light.
Jon Landau suggests a sequel could happen if fans show enough interest to Disney.
