Andy Serkis has shared a bit more about his upcoming Lord of the Rings spin-off movie,The Hunt for Gollum.
The film was officially announced in May, with Serkis set to direct and reprise his role as Mr. Smeagol himself. No plot details have been revealed, but a 2009 fan-made movie of the same name gives us an idea of the story, which can be found in the appendices of the original Lord of the Rings novel. In the story, Gandalf the Grey fears that Gollum may divulge information about the One Ring to Sauron and sends Aragorn on a quest to find him. There’s been no official word as to whether Viggo Mortensen will return as Aragorn in the pic, thoughIan McKellen said he ‘heard’ that Gandalf will indeed be in the film.
