Hobbit Movie News: For geeks only.

<p>Elija Wood will play Frodo in a bracketing feature - Writing the last bit of Bilbo's book (There and Back Agan) that became the "Red Book of Westmarch"</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Andy Serkis is back as Gollum</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ian Holm will reprise his role as the older Bilbo, again in the bracketing.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Gandalf is back (how could he not be), but Christopher Lee will also be back as Saruman if his health allows him to travel.  This is part of the appendices that they will be filming to explain Gadalf's absence.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Agent Smith (Mr. Aragorn you disappoint me) will also return.  So all is in place.  The Die is cast.  Filming starts in 2 weeks in 3D.  First film out Christmas 2012, second a year later.</p>
