Four Hobbits Back For The Hobbit?

Now that he’s been killed off of Lost, I’m sure Dominic Monaghan has plenty of time on his time, other than carrying Evangeline’s shopping bags…

“They really want us to come back, and I think there’s a really strong chance that we might be back,” Monaghan revealed to MTV News at the Sundance Film Festival. While it remains to be seen whether his old friends Elijah Wood, Sean Astin and Billy Boyd feel the same way about returning for “The Hobbit” or another possible prequel in development, Monaghan was eager to add his name to the returning “LOTR” talents. “It’s being produced by Peter Jackson, who obviously made the first films, and his special-effects company are making it,” he explained. “It’s directed by Guillermo del Toro, who I think, outside of Peter Jackson, would be the number-one person to give this any amount of the tenderness that it deserves. Obviously, Ian McKellen’s going to be back for it, and Andy Serkis is going to be back for it.” – from MTV
