Thank you.

I sincerely hope The Hobbit is a commercial success. Not just because we’ve waited so long to see it happen and because it deserves it, but because maybe it’ll also open the door for adaptations of some of J.R.R. Tolkien’s other beautiful stories. For example, the epic love of Luthien and Beren? I’d certainly love to see that on screen. I think Middle-earth is rich with stories that could be adapted.
