For movie buffs and film aficionados, Peter Jackson is the real ‘King Kong’ of filmmaking. He is the director of the world renowned films such as ‘The Lord of the Rings’ trilogy, ‘The Hobbit’ trilogy and ‘King Kong’. The bug of filmmaking bit Jackson when he was very young. Inspired by the classic cinema, he aspired to become a filmmaker and at the age of 12, made his first attempt at the same by making a remake of ‘King Kong’. He turned professional in 1987 with the release of his debut venture, ‘Bad Taste’. No sooner, he gained a cult status among his fans for his low budget splatter movies. Impregnated with novel ideas and futuristic thinking, he achieved much fame and appreciation for ‘Heavenly Creatures’. However, this was just the beginning of a long-lasting legacy! He then worked to come up with the film adaptation of JRR Tolkien’s ‘The Lord of the Rings’ which created history. His childhood dream of making a remake of ‘King Kong’ realized in 2005. Other than being a director, he has also donned the hat of a screenwriter and producer for his flicks. He has been involved in a number of charitable works as well.
