This is a cool piece of news, seems that Ian McKellen (Gandalf) is letting a little bit spill as to what we shall see in ‘Return of the King!’
Ian,
I suspect that Peter Jackson’s film will discuss such things as the Three Rings of the Elf Lords, one of which (Narya) is held by Gandalf himself. Will this ring be visible upon Gandalf’s finger in the film? Is he even shown to be the keeper?
Gorboth,
by the end of the third film Narya will be in evidence
best wishes from middle earth
ian mckellen
Thanks to Gorboth for the email!
Having gotten an email about this last week, I was wary, I assumed people thought the trailer we’ve all seen on the net will be in theatres, which I know will never happen, but now this from Cinescape. It seems we’re going to see a NEW trailer in theatres perhaps THIS summer! Woo Hoo!!!

Theatrical ‘LOTR’ Trailer? Okay, we’ve all seen the online Lord of the Rings preview, but when’s it, or the first official trailer, going to hit movie theater screens? According to Mr. Showbiz columnist Charles Fleming, it may be very soon courtesy of an unnamed source at New Line. The source reports that New Line is currently working on a trailer for the first of three films, which won’t open until Christmas 2001, for theater screens either this summer or fall. The source also tells the columnist, “It will be huge. You won’t be able to escape it.”

A new sci-fi spectacular is coming, and it’s jar jar-free
GET READY FOR THE RINGS THING
Chewbacca might be howling. J.R.R. Tolkien Fans downloaded the first “Lord of the Rings” trailer nearly 1.7 Million times in its first 24 hours on the Net. That put it in a galaxy far, far away from the clip for “The Phantom Menace”, which drew (only) about 1 million the first day. Says a LotR megafan. “It’s so amazing to finally see this world come to life.” if you haven’t already, the first installment premieres Christmas-2001.
Thanks to Jeremiah B for the tip!
