Warner Bros. Discovery has announced a new live-action Lord of the Rings film titled "The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum," with a tentative release date set for December 2027.

Key points from the article:

  • Andy Serkis will not only reprise his iconic role as Gollum but will also direct the film.
  • Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh, and Philippa Boyens, the acclaimed team behind the original Lord of the Rings trilogy, are deeply involved as producers and will be part of "every step of the way," including the scriptwriting process.
  • The film is expected to explore storylines yet to be told, with the title heavily implying it will focus on Aragorn's hunt for Gollum, a significant event that occurs before the main events of The Fellowship of the Ring and is detailed in the appendices of Tolkien's work.
  • This movie is the first of two new live-action  recently announced by Warner Bros. Discovery.
  • The project is currently in the early stages of script development.
  • The announcement was made by Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav during an earnings call.
