Among the writers now joining Guillermo is Peter Jackson (obviously, right?), Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens. It's not like this is supposed - the three additional scribes already have the deal locked down with a tentative start for shooting penciled in around autumn of 2009. What I'm still curious about is the most obvious question: who plays Bilbo? Do they go with old man Ian Holms or a younger man to play the part.

Ian Holm would be great to have again. How about Jeremy Irons as the voice for Smaug? |

Good news everyone! It turns out that the Lord of the Rings writing team will be joining Director Guillermo del Toro to pen the two-film recreation of Bilbo Baggins's adventures, The Hobbit. Considering they truly hit their stride writing and directing-wise with Return of the King, here's hoping that their collaboration on The Hobbit benefits from their time on the last three films.
