He has since steadily teased the idea of follow-up, and even clarified at Comic-Con that he wouldn't be Polar-Express 'ing any formerly 2D characters. Just what relationship live action, 2D, 3D, and performance capture would have in this proposed film is unclear. I'd bet a limb or two that even Zemeckis hasn't quite figured that out.
