ANSWER:

بسم اللہ الرحمن الرحیم
الجواب بعون الملک الوھاب اللھم ھدایۃ الحق والصواب

The gelatine which is made from either, pig fat or the fat of haram animals or the fat of those halal animals who have not been slaughtered, are all ruled as haram.

Whereas the animals which are halal if they are slaughtered (correctly) according to the Shariah (Islamic Law) and their fat is made into gelatine, As well as the gelatine agents attained via plants and other than it, those will be all ruled as halal.
