We had a LOTR thread, didn't we? It was a middle earth thread.

Still, consting confirmations from Del Toro about McKellan, Weaving and Serkis is good news.

he also confirmed that Gandalf's role will be larger.

Great news that McKellen, Weaving and Serkis will be on board for The Hobbit.

Do we have any news as to when the movie will be released?

I think they're talking 2011/2012 right now. Del Toro's got a pretty full plate as it is.

2011/2012? Wow, but understandable, given how much prep time and post production goes into such a project

That's longer than I thought.

Perhaps they are starting to film 2010.

Heh, I think 2010 is about right for filming.

Del Toro got extremely popular once his movies hit, especially Pan's Labyrinth.

Chrissy, they're freaky and fantastic. His character deisgns and style are something completely different. If you haven't seen one of his movies yet, I highly suggest you take on in before seeing Hobbit.

Jeez, you can do his mainstream work, he did Mimic and Blade II and the Hellboy movies. He won a lot for Pan's Labirynth, but it's in spanish.
