Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum Officially Wraps Filming

Director Andy Serkis has revealed his Lord of the Rings spinoff has passed a major production milestone

We are one step closer to seeing a new Lord of the Rings film in theaters. Andy Serkis has confirmed that principal photography on The Hunt for Gollum has been completed, which he is directing in addition to reprising the titular role that made him famous. The movie is currently slated to be released on Dec. 17, 2027.

Serkis broke the news during an interview on The Morning Mosh Pit, adding that he won't say too much about the film right now, because promoting it will be his focus all of next year. He did say that making The Hunt for Gollum has been "an incredible journey," which feels apt for a Lord of the Rings film. Jamie Dornan, who will take over the role of Aragorn from Viggo Mortensen for the film, similarly revealed to Variety that he had finished shooting his scenes about three weeks ago.

Dornan is an interesting part of The Hunt for Gollum , as one of the only actors stepping into a role played by someone else in Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy. In addition to Serkis, both Elijah Wood and Ian McKellen are returning for the film to reprise their roles as Frodo Baggins and Gandalf, respectively. They'll all be joined by several newcomers playing original characters we haven't seen in live-action before, such as Kate Winslet as Marigol , Leo Woodall as Halvard, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Seren .
