| USA Today wrote: | Del Toro says he will meet with Jackson soon to hammer out the movie from the original novel, and then they'll determine whether there is enough background material in the Lord of the Rings books to create a second movie, which would bridge The Hobbit with the other films.
Del Toro will write the first film's screenplay. Jackson, his filmmaking partner-wife, Fran Walsh, and their writing partner, Philippa Boyens, will work on the second. Then they plan to switch and rewrite each other. |
I'm excited for them to get the ball rolling. After Hellboy 2 comes out he will be done with all of that publicity and such, which means he will focus on making The Hobbit. I can't wait.

Sounds good to me. With Peter Jackson and the other two involved, there isn't much chance the screenplay and movie won't be good.

I also like that they will go back and work on each others stuff when they are finished. It will be really good that way, IMO.
