Thats right fans of the Rings. The hobbits is coming to the screen in the form of two films being shot back to back.
The Hobbit = The undexpected journey
The Hobbit = There and back again
Jackson wil direct, and it will be in 3D. The movies are being filmed in New Zealand just as the Lord of the rings were.
It will encoorperate new roles along with retaining the old ones.
The film will star Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield. Several actors from Jackson's The Lord of the Rings film trilogy will reprise their roles, including Ian McKellen, Andy Serkis, Hugo Weaving, Cate Blanchett, Christopher Lee, Ian Holm, Elijah Wood, and Orlando Bloom. Additionally, composer Howard Shore, who wrote the score for The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, has confirmed his role in both parts of the film project.
Is anyone else as excited as I am about this? I was a fan of this book and I look very much forward to the event.
Feel free to post more information to keep us all updated. They expect it to be realeased in the fourth quarter of 2012
