Movie Rumors

[wayner86]

I've heard a few movie rumors the past little while and i was wondering if its a load of BS or if these are valid.

1. I heard that there are talks on creating a sequel to Gladiator...possibly a prequel?

2. I heard perter jackson is laying out the ground work for The Hobbit. I could see this happening since the LOTR trilogy was such a smash hit.

3. I also heard that there may be a prequel to Star Wars...apparently to take place long before the SkyWalkers, supposedly a Jedi/Sith war.

I haven't been able to find much on google except for random conjecture....andone else heard any of this?

I heard Lucas is planning a Star Wars tv series to tie the trilogies together.

1. djimon honsou had been talking about the sequel continuing with his character. but that's just in talks, still in super early development. who knows if it'll happen.

2. i think the hobbit talk may be like the final indiana jones sequel. they've been talking about that for about a decade. he's actually in pre-production of a movie called Lovely Bones (from a book which seems to follow more along the lines of his Heavenly Creatures type of movie). From imdb: "its about a murdered 14 year old girl who recalls what happened from Heaven, as the incident affects those around her."

3.defshep said it, lucas is planning a massive tv series to span the gap between episode 3 and 4 (i guess its supposed to be about 16-17 years? how old is luke supposed to be in star wars?) i read it was planned to be 100 episodes long, which is about a 5-6 year run for the series.

It would be a disservice to not produce the Hobbit in the same quality as the LOTR movies...at least to me...
What a fun movie the Hobbit would be.
