Here’s the latest on the upcoming The Hobbit from the filmmakers.

Quite impressively, they’ve got the scoop on Peter Jackson and GuillermoDel Toro’s revised plans for The Hobbit. Previously we’d been told that they were going to make two films, the first an adaptation the novel and the second to bridge the gap between that book and The Fellowship of the Ring. Now, however, it seems that The Hobbit itself is going to take up two full length pictures all by itself.

Here’s Del Toro:

We’ve decided to have The Hobbit span the two movies, including the White Council and the comings and goings of Gandalf to Dol Guldur.

And Jackson:

We decided it would be a mistake to try to cram everything into one movie. The essential brief was to do The Hobbit, and it allows us to make The Hobbit in a little more style, if you like, of the trilogy.

Even with all of these plans, it’ll be years before we even see the first film, but I’m sure it will be great!
