The newest Lord of the Rings-film The Hunt for Gollum is increasingly taking shape. The fantasy film, directed by Andy Serkis, already marked the return of well-known faces such as Ian McKellen (Gandalf), Elijah Wood (Frodo) and also Serkis himself! Anya Taylor-Joy, who is with Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) and Dune, which has previously ventured into major franchises, now joins the cast of The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum. Variety reports this.
New cast members
This makes Taylor-Joy one of the many surprising and new faces of the Lord of the Rings universe. For example, it was previously announced that Kate Winslet will be seen as Marigol, that Jamie Dornan has been cast as Strider and that Leo Woodall is also part of the cast with his character Halvard. Taylor-Joy will portray the role of Sindar elf Seren. This seems The Hunt for Gollumwhich should be released at the end of 2027, will become increasingly complete.
Spin-off
The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum is a spin-off and takes place between the events of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012) and the first part of The Lord of the Rings. We still have to be patient before we can admire the latest addition to the beloved LOTR universe; The Hunt for Gollum is expected to be released in theaters in December 2027.
