According to AICN, James Cameron’s next project is going to be a “small dramatic film in 3-D,” to prove the point that 3D isn’t just for big action and special effects, but can enhance the performance of actors in a dialogue scene as well.

Well, okay, AICN calls it Cameron’s “follow-up” to Avatar, but nothing they quote actually says it’ll be his “next” project. So there may still be hope for the Battle Angel movie (which, by the way, could be a really cool action flick in 3D…but a dialogue-only drama it ain’t), but I’m not sure I’d want to get too hopeful. This may mean that those rumors from a while back aren’t true, but only time will tell.
