Peter Jackson Working on New ‘Lord of the Rings’ Films for Warner Bros., Targeting 2026 Debut
Warner Bros. has made it official: It will be returning to Middle-earth.
On Warner Bros. Discovery’s first-quarter earnings conference call on Thursday, CEO David Zaslav said that the company is “now in the early stages of script development” for new Lord of the Rings movies, which he says they “anticipate releasing in 2026” and will “explore storylines yet to be told.”
The first film, which will center on the character of Gollum, has Andy Serkis set to star and direct.
The Gollum video game was such a financial success, they decided to go all in
Can’t wait for the gut wrenching wokeh activist story about a poor hobbitstinian, who is chased from his home and land, brutally tortured and eventually murdered by settler colonial orcs and their leader, Elder of Ziovalar, Pipi Sauronetanyahu, who wants middle earth because Eruyahweh promised it to his chose colonialists!!! What a tragic story! If only they let innocent Gollum be free in his land with his precious! From the Anduin river to the Nurnen sea, Mordorstine will be free!
Spoiler:
If only the poor hobbitstinian Gollum made different choices throughout key events in his life, all this suffering could have been avoided
Gollum is a pretty annoying character, especially so in the movies. Maybe not Jar-Jar Binks bad but i wasn't fan and not a fan of Serkis at all to be honest. I'm still hyped for more LOTR though.
After clumsily trying to cater to a different audience with the failed not-so-amazon Power Ringers, the idea now is to target kids whilst luring their foolish fan-fathers and exposing them to another potential disappointment
I guess this whole thing was greenlit when Warner and Jackson realized just how much Amazon fucked up with Rings of Power. I'm not sure about Gollum getting his own movie but we'll have to wait and see. I wonder what else will come later.

Never will anyone openly admit a activist product is a failure. Never. Won't happen.
