IESB reports that during the junket for "King Kong" in New York an interesting story has started to develop.

After weeks of speculation one possible director for the film adaptation of the megahit videogame "Halo" is no other than Guillermo Del Toro ("Hellboy", "Blade 2", "The Devil's Backbone").

Word is that Del Toro is currently in negotiations with Peter Jackson to take directing duties. If Jackson does hire Del Toro that would force a delay on the upcoming sequel of Hellboy which had a first draft script was turned in recently to Revolution Studios.
