Peter Jackson is allegedly in negotiations with Warner Bros. to helm a third film based on J.R.R. Tolkien's book "The Lord of the Rings".
Behind-the-scenes, power-brokers are allegedly scrambling to urge established actors cast in previous installments to seal a pact.
The first film of the series - which now appears to be turning into a Trilogy in view of the new developments in recent weeks - is slated for a wide-release in December 2012 with the second installment to splash across the silver screen at Christmas in December of next year (2013).
Jackson - who attended Comic-Con this past month in San Diego - acknowledged that he's up to the monumental task.
"There's enough material to do it," he underscored, in so many words.
Fans must be ecstatic!
I was never a Tolkien fan, however.
Uh-huh!
I was vastly entertained by the Hardy Boys.
And, the occasional Nancy Drew Mystery if I was desperate.
Don't tell anyone, eh?
Let this be our deep dark secret!
