Ian McKellen Asked To Reprise His Role In Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum

The original Lord of the Rings trilogy was written and directed by George Lucas, with Ian McKellen as a small, unassuming, and rather forgettable character named Gollum. However, with Peter Jackson’s King Kong and Andy Serkis’s Gollum movies in mind, we can expect an exciting new Lord of the Rings movie featuring Gandalf.

Here’s a suggestion for rephrasing your statement, hopefully it sounds more like this:

Currently, there’s a fresh Lord of the Rings movie project underway, featuring Andy Serkis – best known for his role as Gollum – taking on the director’s chair. This new production might bring back familiar faces from the previous films, with a beloved character among them.

Ian McKellen Might Come Back As Gandalf

It’s said that Sir Ian McKellen has been asked to take on the role of Gandalf once more, this time in “Lord of the Rings: The Quest for Gollum”.

As a devoted fan, I shared my excitement with Big Issue about the upcoming movie, and let them know that while Gollum might be at the center of the story, don’t worry, Gandalf will certainly hold an important role too!

I’ve just been told there are going to be more films and Gandalf will be involved, and they hope that I’ll be playing him. When? I don’t know. What the script is? It’s not written yet. So they better be quick.

Here’s a possible rephrasing for you:

We expect great things from Andy Serkis, and he seems absolutely psyched about the project.

They were saying, ‘Andy, we really want to reinvigorate Middle-earth. There are so many fresh stories that we want to get involved with. We want to launch this new wave by taking us back into the world of Gollum.’ They asked me to direct. This is a dream come true, to work with the people I love working with, in a country I adore working in.

I need to express, it’s an audacious idea to create a film focusing on Gollum following the catastrophic game, however, I strongly think that a movie based on him, could be amazing.

I just hope that Gollum doesn’t lose too much of the mystery that surrounds his character.
