Genndy Tartovsky 'allegedly' off Dark Crystal Sequel

This was a rumor started on IMDB, and because of a lack of news or, basically anything from The Orphanage or Henson Co, it remains, neither confirmed or denied. It would be nice if SOME ONE had some information as to what's going on with this supposed sequel.

I thought this sequel was canned some months ago.

That's what I thought too, that it was cancelled all together.

You'd think the film was canned as there has been zero press coverage and nay a word from Henson Co. or the director himself. The last rumor to circulate cited a DVD only release. That rumor came from The Latino Review, which was later denied by Lisa Henson, daughter of Jim Henson.

I could have sworn this movie was already shot and sitting on the shelf. I could swear I saw production stills of this movie. Not the case?

There's been some concept art for it released, but I'm not aware of any production at all. Last I heard was the Henson Co saying it was putting the whole project on some kind of hiatus or indefinite suspension (pick your synonym of choice).

Lisa Henson in a statement released in January reported that the project was very much on schedule for a release in 2009. Who knows at this point. Genndy Tartovsky and the Henson company are good at, if nothing else, generating disinterest through their lack of communication.

Tartakovsky has as much chance of doing this as Astroboy or that live action Samurai Jack.

He's very much becoming animations answer to Ridley Scott or The Beard with the amount of projexts his name gets attached to.

Does anyone actually know what Tartakovsky is actually working on at this exact moment rather than what he might, could or should be doing?

Everything has been silent on the Henson front recently. No word on the Muppet pilot show they were pushing, no word on the Dark Crystal sequel, and no word on the Fraggle Rock film either. All we've heard about is the new Muppet Movie and all of the news on it has come from the writers.
