Warner Bros. and New Line are going back to Middle-earth, with the studio making a deal that will allow it to develop more Lord of the Rings movies.
The multi-year deal with rights holders Embracer Group AB allows Warners to develop features based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings books and The Hobbit. Embracer Group, the Swedish gaming company, acquired the rights to LOTR film, games, merchandise, theme parks and live productions when it purchased rights holder Middle-earth Enterprises last year from The Saul Zaentz Company.

And, of course, as much as new movies present opportunities for big franchise swings, they will come under fan scrutiny, just as much as the current Warners franchise plays, such as DC and Fantastic Beasts, do.
In a statement, those working on the projects acknowledge the task ahead.
“We understand how cherished these works are and working together with our partners at New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures, we plan to honor the past, look to the future, and adhere to the strongest level of quality and production values,” said Lee Guinchard, CEO of Freemode, which is part of Embracer.

I’m not going to say they were perfect but we’re not even 25 years removed from very well received Oscar winning films.
Let’s at least get it to a point where it’s something I show my grandkids first.

Warners has been playing this card for along time and now Zaslov is going to punch it to get them financially well enough to sell to Apple, etc 2-5 yrs.
I just wonder where they go with this. They only have rights to LOTR and Hobbit.. Not the rest of the legendarium.

All the orcs are white.
Frodo and Sam are explicitly in a homosexual relationship. So are Merry and Pippin.
Gandalf and Aragorn are “reimagined” as females. Gimli and Legolas are minorities.
Boromir remains a straight white male.

Not surprised. I'm in my early 30s. I expect to see series like LOTR and Harry Potter get remade at least 2 more times before I die.

Such a bad idea. Really, really bad idea.
Are Frodo and Sam going into the lotr multiverse.

Follow Farmer Maggot as he attempts to run a farm in the countryside. Watch as he contends with the worst farming weather in decades, disobedient animals, unresponsive crops, and the bureaucratic machine that is The Shire Planning Council.

Nothing can ever top the original trilogy

We’ve gone from a place where film makers adapted things as faithfully as they could (LOTR and Dark Knight) to now film makers basically see how much they can frick up any existing property they can.

It shows you how creatively bankrupt these people are that they’re just going to keep remaking this shite because they don’t have an original thought worth a shite in their entire heads.
