Tolkien fans can rejoice because there are new projects around the clock Lord of the rings are on the way. Warner Bros. announced several upcoming projects, with Peter Jackson and his team return to production. Including, as we know, a film called The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum.
Another Lord of the Rings surprise
According to Philippa Boyens, screenwriter of the previous Lord of the Rings films, the Gollum feature will indeed be a unique film. The rumor about a split into two parts arose out of confusion, as the team is actually working on it two separate films
The return of Gandalf?
The confusion surrounding the two films could also be due to the fact that Gandalf, played by Ian McKellen, could return two live action films. Boyens hinted that the team is considering projects that would feature the famous magician at the center. Something that will delight fans hoping for a reunion McKellen resumes his legendary role.
Tolkien’s world will not end here. In addition to the two live-action films, another project is about to be released: the animated film The Rohirrim Warscheduled for December. If this animation project is a success, other Middle-earth stories could also be adapted into animation.
