Big movements for the upcoming New Line Cinema adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic book The Hobbit. Good news fans, Hugo Weaving is back as Elrond! As of yesterday, more than six weeks after the principal photography for the movie began, the call went out that Weaving would be returning to play Elrond, the master of Rivendell. Also, New Zealand actor Dean O'Gorman will be playing Fili, one of the thirteen dwarf's that sets out with Thorin, Bilbo and Gandalf to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from the dragon Smaug. Lee Pace will be playing the role of the Elven king Thranduil. I will continue to update the blog with new developments as they come to light, so for now, we can just mark our calendars in preparation for the midnight opening.
