Ian McKellen is set to reprise his role as Gandalf for the two-part adaptation of The Hobbit.
Ian said, “Yes, it’s true, I spoke to Guillermo in the very room that Peter Jackson offered me the part and he confirmed that I would be reprising the role. Obviously, it’s not a part that you turn down, I loved playing Gandalf.”
The movie will follow the characters in the years between The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
