With all the delays I kind of doubt that, though I guess that's kind of just more reason for it to be correct.

The Hobbit is going to be made into two films.
At which point of the story do you think they will split the narration between film 1 and film 2?

My guess is that they will end Part 1 after the barrel ride.

From what I had come to understand, most of The Hobbit would be Part 1 and Part 2 would be the rest of it along with a follow-up to Lord of the Rings, hence the cameos.
Casting news!
[quote=Peter Jackson]I'm very pleased to be welcoming two new cast members to our team.
Dean O'Gorman will be playing Fili. Dean's a terrific Kiwi actor, who I am thrilled to be working with. He's recently been in an excellent TV series down here called "The Almighty Johnsons", and I should let fans of that show know that our shooting schedule allows Dean to continue with a second series next year. Dean will be joining us next week.
I'm also pleased to announce that Lee Pace will be playing the Elven King Thrandruil. Casting these Tolkien stories is very difficult, especially the Elven characters, and Lee has always been our first choice for Thrandruil. He's going to be great. We loved his performance in a movie called "The Fall" a few years ago, and have been hoping to work with him since. When we were first discussing who would be right for Thrandruil, Lee came into mind almost immediately.
It's been a great week, and I'm looking forward to the next few. It's going to be interesting ...
More soon.
Cheers,
Peter J [/quote]

Well, it's only one of them that is going to be a dwarf, so the situation is improved by 50%
Gandalf is back in business.

And Conan is awesome as "The Mountain" in Game of Thrones, so I'm looking forward to see him as an orc!

They look like they are such good friends and have so much fun together.
Like making the movie is more about seeing each-other again, and for the love of the books, than making money.
I liked fat Peter Jackson more. He looks creepy as shit now.

He is still fat, just not obese.
Be happy he won't die of heart disease, and we get more fantastic movies from him.

[quote=Peter Jackson]Yikes! I can finally get back to some postings! We've finished our first block of shooting and moved straight into location scouting. More on that soon... But today, I'm thrilled to announce two new cast members who will be joining us for our second block of shooting.
Evangeline Lilly will be playing a new character—the Woodland Elf, Tauriel. Her name means 'daughter of Mirkwood' and, beyond that, we must leave you guessing! (No, there is no romantic connection to Legolas.) What is not a secret is how talented and compelling an actress Evangeline is; we are thrilled and excited she will be the one to bring our first true Sylvan Elf to life.
I'm also highly excited that Barry Humphries will be portraying the Goblin King, in much the way Andy Serkis created Gollum. Barry is perhaps best known for his business and social connections as the long-time manager of Dame Edna Everage. He has also been an ardent supporter of the rather misunderstood and unfairly maligned Australian politician, Sir Les Patterson. However, in his spare time, Barry is also a fine actor, and we're looking forward to seeing him invest the Goblin King with the delicate sensitivity and emotional depth this character deserves.
Evangeline and Barry, along with Welsh actor Luke Evans as Bard and Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug, just about rounds out the major casting. I cannot wait to get stuck into these new scenes!
More soon, including a flurry of answers to your questions. Sorry for the delay!
Cheers,

Are they actually going to make it in parts? Hobbit isn't even that long of a story. Sure they could fit it all into one film.
Honestly can't wait. Re-watching all the extended editions

I'm happier with two parts. More hobbit = better hobbit.
[QUOTE=JenniferLee;30658663]Are they actually going to make it in parts? Hobbit isn't even that long of a story. Sure they could fit it all into one film.[/QUOTE]
the first film is supposed to be the hobbit, the second is supposed to connect lotr and the hobbit.
I haven't read The Hobbit and I won't till I watch the movie, I don't want to get spoiled.
Might read it after the movie.
[QUOTE=Pops;30660199]the first film is supposed to be the hobbit, the second is supposed to connect lotr and the hobbit.[/QUOTE]
No, both movies will be The Hobbit. Both parts will have some other stuff mixed in.
