“We’ve decided to have The Hobbit span the two movies, including the White Council and the comings and goings of Gandalf to Dol Guldur,” says Del Toro.

“We decided it would be a mistake to try to cram everything into one movie,” adds Jackson. “The essential brief was to do The Hobbit, and it allows us to make The Hobbit in a little more style, if you like, of the [LOTR] trilogy.”

Now we can begin to speculate where the cut is going to be =)

Thanks EM!

Interestingly, he talked about some possible cast returns to his hobbit role, since the creative team behind The Hobbit (mostly the same from The Lord of the Rings trilogy), would be interested in bringing back the four actors Elijah Wood (Frodo Baggins), Sean Astin (Sam Gamgee), and Billy Boyd (Peregrin Tuc) to their roles. According to Dominic, he’s eager to come back.

What’s this all about? Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin are nowhere in The Hobbit book. In fact, they’re not even born during Bilbo Baggins’ adventures with the dragons. Could it be one of the first clues about the plot of the second Hobbit film? Let’s recall that it’s generally considered the bridge between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, which may include some of the original cast such as Ian McKellen (Gandalf) and Andy Serkis (Gollum). However, director Guillermo del Toro has been absolutely silent about the concrete details of the second film.

We’ll bring you the updates to this information as soon as possible. In the meantime, what do you think about a possible return of the 4 beloved hobbits?

Thanks FS!
