Merrick again...
McKellen's website stealthily changed THE HOBBIT's start date from June to July. All other information appears to be more-or-less the same.
Merrick here...
This news is neither surprising nor breathtaking - and isn't really "news" in the sense that this is pretty much what we've been hearing for a while now. Still, it's a tasty...confirmation...of unspeakable awesomeness soon to be afoot.
From Ian McKellen's official site (HERE).
THE HOBBIT's, two films, start shooting in New Zealand in June. Filming will take over a year. Casting in Los Angeles, New York City and London has started. The script too proceeds. The first draft is crammed with old and new friends, again on a quest in Middle Earth.
The director Guillermo del Toro is now living in Wellington, close to the Jacksons' and the studio in Miramar.
