In Robota's futuristic world, technology is on the decline as the story’s hero is pursued by killer robots.

We've seen teasers for this for at least a year. Will there be more? A Robota short or feature?

AP: The next step will be to put together enough financing to produce a feature-length film. A 40-page treatment has been written by…Orson. What we want to do now is raise the development money and finish the script. We are still debating if the film will be done in full CG or combine live action and digital animation. The film's budget is estimated at 50 million euro.

We are in discussion with a couple of major Hollywood studios and European film funds. Our objective is to raise around 40% of the budget in Europe before signing a U.S. deal in order to retain as much creative control as possible.
