No news is bad news.... |

Hollywoodnews.com cought up with Guilllermo del Toro and he confirmed what many of us have been suspecting already. The situation at MGM is still not resolved, and the film cannot be greenlit until this situation has been sorted out.
If this goes on for much longer, the release date for the first Hobbit film might be pushed back beyond the currently planned date of 2012.

What goes for 'news' these days |
|
May 23, 2010 - 5:18 PM - by Elwen

TORN has just summarised the few bits and pieces of information about the Hobbit production that have recently surfaced. I would take all of these with a spoonful of salt.- It seems clear that preparations are continuing in spite of the difficult situation at MGM.
- Apparently they are currently hoping to start shooting in November.
- They seem to be getting more serious about shooting in 3D (probably inevitable following Avatar and the apparent rise of 3D blockbusters).
- There are some signs that the situation at MGM might be in the process of being sorted out.
