A new "Lord of the Rings", focussing on the iconic character Gollum, is being developed by Warner Bros with actor-filmmaker Andy Serkis.

The British star had brought alive the lanky Hobbit-like creature from JRR Tolkien's fantasy novel in Peter Jackson's 바카라Lord of the Rings바카라 and 바카라The Hobbit바카라 trilogies.

The new movie, which is tentatively titled "Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum", will be directed by Serkis. The actor will also reprise the role in the movie, reported entertainment news outlet Variety.

The project is currently in the early stages of script development from writers Walsh and Boyens, along with Phoebe Gittins and Arty Papageorgiou.

During an earnings call Thursday, Warner Bros Discovery CEO David Zaslav said the project will 바카라explore storylines yet to be told", and release in theatres in 2026.

Jackson and his partners Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens are producing the movie and 바카라will be involved every step of the way,바카라 he added. It will be executive produced by Ken Kamins, with Serkis and The Imaginarium바카라s Jonathan Cavendish.

The Hollywood studio had announced in February 2023 that Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy had brokered a deal to make 바카라multiple바카라 films based on the beloved JRR Tolkien books.

Besides "The Hunt for Gollum", Warner Bros also has an animated fantasy film, titled 바카라The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim바카라, arriving in theatres in December this year.
