The Hunt for Gollum jämförs med The Two Towers av filmens producent

Även om vi redan fått återvända till Middle Earth med den tecknade The War of the Rohirrim så är det kanske Andy Serkins kommande projekt som många ser mest fram emot. Nu har dess producent Philippa Boyens pratat lite om denna i en intervju och gör där liknelsen med Sagan om ringen-trilogins andra del gällande den kommande filmens ton.

"I think there's echo. There's definitely ... "Two Towers," it's not going to be "Two Towers," but the similarities, I think, is the bridging nature of the film. "Two Towers" was one of the harder films to write because it is doing that, bridging the beginning. It is the middle film. It has a quality of that to it. But one thing that we are determined to do — and a lot of this is going to have to do with Andy Serkis as a director — is we want this to be different and to feel fresh. To exist within the world that has been established, but also to be surprising. And I think what's interesting is we are finding a lot of threads of story that are surprising in there when you really go in there and examine it. Yeah.", säger Boyens i en intervju med SlashFilm.

En stor del av behållningen med Sagan om ringen-filmerna var utan tvekan det magnifika Nya Zeeland. I intervjun avslöjar också Boyens att The Hunt for Gollum kommer visa upo helt nya miljöer. Hon säger; "We get to go to some places that we've never been before, which will be really, really, really cool."

The War of the Rohirrim går på bio för tillfället. The Hunt for Gollum ska ha premiär någon gång under 2026.
