Billy Boyd, one of Scotland&#146;s most acclaimed stage and screen actors, and the other British &#147;hobbit&#148; star, Dominic Monaghan, have linked up with a leading Scottish playwright to write a buddy movie. The two actors, who met on the set of Peter Jackson&#146;s Oscar-winning film trilogy, formed such a strong personal fellowship that they want to play themselves in a comedy about two inept Brits on a road trip around America.
