Access Hollywood was all over the red carpet premiere of King Kong in New York City. In this clip from the show they ask Andy Serkis to do a little ‘Gollum vs. Kong’ and Andy quickly corrects them and says it must be Gollum vs. Smeagol vs. Kong…an interesting thing to imagine! Take a look. (11.4MB MOV) [More]

Serkis can do it all, from balding mystical runt to huge, hairy anthropoid in a blink of the camera’s eye. He was the heart and soul of creepy Gollum, the defrocked hobbit in The Lord of the Rings. Now he’s Hollywood’s go-to guy for iconic gorillas in our midst. [More]
