As a lot as we prefer to see Wood again within the hobbit ft, the inclusion doesn’t make solely clear sense due to the sentiment expressed within the well-known Frodo line above. Before he and his fellow Hobbits have been known as upon to return the One Ring to Mordor, they’d a comparatively idyllic life. Throughout the trilogy although, we observe the load positioned upon Frodo as he completes his mission, the lack of his innocence is handled as part of his heroic sacrifice. That sacrifice solely works if we perceive Frodo’s life to be glad and uninteresting earlier than forming the Fellowship.
So what the heck is Frodo going to be doing in The Hunt for Gollum? Are we going to only watch him lazing about in some idyll? Will we spend time with him as he mows the garden or tends to the shrubberies? We know that on the evening Gandalf returns, he nonetheless enjoys pint down on the tavern with Sam and his lovelorn eyes for Rosie. Perhaps we’ll get to see some foundational moments that made Frodo into the character we all know and love. Maybe we’ll see Frodo introducing younger Samwise to potatoes, thus incomes his timeless loyalty?
It’s onerous to consider that The Hunt for Gollum would waste display screen time on one thing so boring. But one desires to belief that Serkis and Jackson have sufficient care and respect for the characters that they’ll watch out to not undermine the pathos of the earlier movies. So possibly we’ll see a extra sophisticated Frodo, somebody who longs to observe in his Uncle Bilbo’s adventurous footsteps, unaware of how a lot the journey will price him.
Honestly, it’s onerous to say for certain how the film plans to deal with the story, as we haven’t really heard affirmation that Wood has joined the forged. We’ll simply must let Serkis and Jackson hold their secrets and techniques, and we’ll hold making ridiculous speculations.
The Hunt for Gollum is slated for a 2027 launch.
