Everybody’s talking about: The Lord of the Rings TV series

LOTR 6 Wikia Wikia

So, Amazon is planning to adapt The Lord of the Rings into a TV series, and Ian McKellen has hinted that he might want to return to playing Gandalf.

In an interview with Graham Norton, he answered a question on whether he’d find it annoying to have another Gandalf with an incredulous: “What do you mean, another Gandalf?”

I haven’t said yes because I haven’t been asked. But are you suggesting that someone else is going to play it? Gandalf is over 7000 years old, so I’m not too old.

This has suddenly gotten very interesting…
