Peter Jackson Meets With Actors For The Hobbit

This is a good sign!
Although The Hobbit hasn’t officially been greenlighted, director Peter Jackson took some meetings this week in El Lay with the actors and he will also stop in New York and the UK for the casting trip.
Rumor has it that Jackson’s deal with Warner Bros. to direct The Hobbit is almost done, but apparently it’s the shitty financial situation at MGM that’s holding everything up.
We hope they sort everything out soon — we want to see this movie!
