After the Lord of the Rings Series, director Guillermo del Toro is going to make the movie named "The Hobbit", the pre-cursor to the Lord of the Rings Series. Toro says to MTV, "My message is simple: If you don’t think Peter did a fabulous job, very likely you won’t think I will. If you think he did, I will do my best to make you proud of me.” Guillermo del Toro has to his credit great movies like, Hellboy I and II, Labrinth, and Blade II. This famous series is written by J.R.R.Tolkien. In this movie, it will be filled with the adventures of Bilbo Baggins.

We all know that the Lord of the Rings, is all about an evil ring, the possessor of which, can become the ruler of the world, and Frodo Baggins'(relative of Bilbo Baggins, who gets the ring from Gollum and keeps it for more than 100 years) adventurous and dangerous mission of destroying the ring in the "Cracks of Doom". The story "The Hobbit" is all about how Bilbo Baggins comes across the ring, and his adventures that revolves around dragons, dwarves, monsters and other creatures of the Middle Earth. And there is Gandalf, the Grey Wizard to help Bilbo at hard times. It has been confirmed that Ian McKellen is doing the Gandalf role. There are speculations that the movie will get released in the year 2010. Let us hope that Toro will better Peter, in this new movie.
