THE LORD OF THE RINGS composer Howard Shore has confirmed that that he will return to score Peter Jackson’s THE HOBBIT.
Shore told The Province that he has been discussing reuniting with Jackson for the two-part HOBBIT adaptation since 2002 and has recently said that “It looks like finally it’s going to be happening…I’ll be working on it for the next three years – it’s going to consume a lot of my time and work now.”
Shore composed the music for Jackson’s fantasy trilogy – winning Oscars for THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING and THE RETURN OF THE KING – and worked with the director on KING KONG before leaving over creative differences.
