on Apr 30 2008 01:37 PM Brilliant new, and I'm sure Serkis will be in as Gollum. Now all we need is Elrond (Hugo Weaving), who had a short role in the book (might be excluded too)... and voila! I'm all for getting a new actor to play Bilbo, not sure who though. Also, am very curious to know as to who will play Beorn! he was an awesome character! Cant wait! (Reply to this) |
on Apr 30 2008 02:09 PM and adu, don't forget "the king under the mountain", Thorin! I will be very interested in seeing who they cast for him and of course, Bilbo Baggins,aka "The Burgular"! Also, i'm interested to see how smog looks like and how about the fight between all the armies, oh its going to be good when we return to Middle-Earth in 2010, 2011!! ...."The Greatest Adventure, lies ahead" ;) (Reply to this) |
