Blanchett Talks ‘Rings’ Cate Blanchett (Galadriel) is talking, briefly, about the Lord of the Rings project. While talking to frequent Cinescape contributor Cindy Pearlman for her syndicated column, Blanchett talked about Tolkien’s original books, saying, “[Author] J.R.R. Tolkien created a whole language. He created a world within a world. My god, that man. He created the Middle Earth. I think Lord of the Rings will be a historic movie.” [More]
New Line’s official LOTR site has updated with it’s newest ‘Live on Set’ report. Here is what was said:
‘Claire Raskind: I’m live on the set of Helms Deep with Director, Writer, Producer Peter Jackson. We’re looking forward to the ShoWEST footage being shown on the Official Website. Pete, how do you feel about that?
Peter Jackson: I think it’s really great that some of the footage that we’ve been shooting is able to be seen at this early stage. We’ve been shooting for nearly six months now, and we’ve got 8 months to go and it’s just great to be able to share some of what we’ve been doing with the fans.‘
