According to The Hollywood Reporter, Elijah will also make a comeback in "The Hobbit" as his previous role Frodo, as well as other characters. "(Ian) McKellen is back, Cate Blanchett is back, Andy Serkis, and Orlando (Bloom). It's going to be like going back in time,". When asked about whether Sean Astin will make a comeback as well, he said he had no idea. "I haven't even read the script."
Elijah knows that he will only make a small appearance, since the character Frodo isn't actually appear in "The Hobbit" novel. However, his reprisal to play Frodo is to show how much he respects the work of this movie.
Martin Freeman has been casted to play Bilbo Baggins, the leading character in "The Hobbit" (which was previously played by Ian Holm in "The Lord Of The Rings" trilogy). Saoirse Ronan, David Tennant, and Leonard Nimoy are rumored to play Itaril, Thranduil, and Smaug respectively. This movie will be made into two parts, with the first part to release in December 19, 2012.
I am so excited that Peter Jackson decided to film "The Hobbit", I think I need to watch more epic colossal movies as great as "The Lord Of The Rings" trilogy—it's been a 'draught' of epicness in the movie industry lately! All I can say is welcome back and good luck to all cast of "The Hobbit"!
