The Hobbit is only going to be the first film. The second film is going to be from various Tolkein works and acts as a bridge between the Hobbit and The LOTR.

Falu Posted March 21, 2010 Share Posted March 21, 2010 I first got into Tolkien through the two animated films when I was young and fell in love with them. I watched them over and over again. I read the books when I was a bit older and still read the Hobbit now and again. When the PJ LOTR came out I was not sure about them, my perceived view of what the cast looked like was completely different from what I was used to, but I grew to love them. I hope del Toro does a decent job with one of my favourite stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stage show apparently has a few musical numbers. I'm thinking it could be similar to the animated version of the story. Tolkien loved his singing.
