    Produced by Peter Jackson, along with Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, the film will explore uncharted storylines and feature a script developed by a talented team including Walsh, Boyens, Phoebe Gittins, and Arty Papageorgiou. The project is part of a larger initiative to create multiple films based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s works, with a separate animated movie, The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim, also in the works.
