THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY
"THE HOBBIT" Filming Pushed Back to Summer
German site MovieReporter.net talked to Peter Jackson, who revealed that "THE HOBBIT" and its sequel will now start filming mid-summer 2010 instead of the previously-reported March start. Here's a translation of Jackson's quote, thanks to TheOneRing.net:We're currently working on the second script which we hope to have completed by the end of this year or beginning of next. When the scripts are completed, we can begin with the exact calculation of the necessary budget. We hope to start filming in the middle of next year. However, we've received no green light from the studio yet.
We're guessing that green light won't come until MGM's future is cleared up. We don't expect that this will affect the first film's targeted release of December 2011 and second film's release of December 2012.
Synopsis : Bilbo Baggin is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities... A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.
