Well, we don't know yet, but director Guillermo del Toro says that he is very close to naming a lead for the upcoming LORD OF THE RINGS prequel THE HOBBIT. The man had previously narrowed down his casting choice for the Bilbo Baggins role in "The Hobbit" films to just four actors.
He now tells MTV News that he since has narrowed down the list even more to just one actor. "I believe we're very close now to saying one name." So who is it? Well, we'll find out just a couple of weeks.
According to Del Toro, the actor has not yet been contacted directly, but talks with his representatives have already started.
Can't wait!
