Month: March 2000
A few months back Aint-It-Cool-News reported that 3 mysterious cast members have been cast but he did not know who. We later learned that one of them was Kevin Conway. We were told he was going to play Theoden, king of Rohan.
All attempts to confirm this were thwarted by the fact that Kevin Conway’s people were unknown to me. So we all took it as red that Conway would be playing Theoden.
A few weeks back TheOneRing.net learned that Bernard Hill would be involved in LOTR as well, and this time, my contacts told me it may be something like Theodus, as it now turns out, this may actually be Theoden.
Very reliable sources tell me that Hill may be playing Theoden and not Denethor or anyone else as previously thought.
This begs the question, who will Conway play? Denethor?
