O site BilboHobbit teve a sorte de trocar algumas palavras com o realizador de The Hobbit, Guillermo del Toro, que levantou um pouco o véu acerca daquilo que podemos esperar dos dois filmes baseados na obra de JRR Tolkien.
Fica então uma parte da "entrevista":
Questão: Will there be any cool creatures in Hobbit like Hellboy 2?
Guillermo del Toro: Many, many more and we will be pushing the goblin kindgom. we will be pushing smaug, the spiders of mirkwood. We will be pushing them to the edge of technology where we will fuse animatronics and cgi into a seamless new art form in creating creatures, i think.
Q: Do you plan to use any particular effects or techniques in the Hobbit that were used in Hellboy II?
GdT: Well, yes, but used in a different way. You will see some mind-boggling mixture of CGI / Puppetry like never before. The demarcation of where one technique ends and the other begins will NOT be as clean as in HBII or Blade II or Pan’s Labyrinth. I am going to push further than ever on both fronts.
Q: When does filming for The Hobbit begin?
GdT: It will begin in 2010 and we will shoot for about 370 days or so…
Q: Who are your top choices to play Bilbo Baggins in the upcoming Hobbit Movies?GdT: Hopefully,
very soon we can reveal that...
Por agora só resta esperar por novos desenvolvimentos...mas com o lançamento do primeiro filme só para o final de 2011, parece-me que ainda vamos ter de esperar BASTANTE.
