THE HOBBIT

First director Peter Jackson was lured back to the world of Middle Earth to direct the upcoming feature The Hobbit; now Frodo himself, Elijah Wood will return for John Ronald Reuel Tolkin's beloved original tale. The Lord of the Rings trilogy, which was largely enjoyable save for that painfully overdrawn last act where Frodo sat doe-eyed watching his tiny chums bounce around on an oversized bed.

You ever wonder what the author of some of the most popular fantasy novels of all-time looks like?

Not at all what I thought. Although, not really sure what I expecting; perhaps a pimply, fat dude wearing a graphic tee? Alas, once again, I am drowning in mustache envy. 

Joining Jackson and Wood are Rings veterans Sir Ian McKellan (Gandalf), Hugo Weaving (Elrond), Cate Blanchett (Galadriel) and Andy Serkis (Gollum).
