The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum is, maybe unsurprisingly, supposedly going to be cut up into two movies, based on Ian McKellen.
It looks as if Warner Bros is seeking to proceed its custom of stretching out Lord of the Rings movies into barely too lengthy with its subsequent venture, The Hunt for Gollum – you would possibly keep in mind that The Hobbit was was a trilogy, regardless of there not being fairly sufficient ebook to really handle that, however hey ho, there’s cash to be made. And there is much more cash to be made, because the Gollum-centric movie introduced earlier this yr will apparently be two movies. This comes from Gandalf himself, Ian McKellen, who not too long ago made an look on ITV’s This Morning the place he was requested about whether or not he’ll be showing within the movie.
The actor not too long ago had an accident throughout a efficiency of a play he is at present part of, main him to take a little bit of day without work work to recuperate, and was in flip requested if he’ll be in it. “All I do know is that they referred to as me up and mentioned these movies had been going to occur, primarily to be about Gollum, Andy Serkis who performed Gollum’s going to direct, and there can be a script arriving someday within the new yr, after which I will decide whether or not I wish to return,” McKellen shared, reiterating earlier feedback. He went on to say he would love to come back again, and when requested if it will simply be one movie, he shared “I am instructed it is two movies.”

That clearly is not set in stone simply but, as if a script will not even be in McKellen’s arms till subsequent yr issues may change fairly quickly. I am additionally not completely positive how a hunt for Gollum may even be fascinating for 2 movies, however hey, who is aware of higher than executives that wish to become profitable, proper?
