It's very early days, and no scripts are written yet for the new Lord of the Rings movies. But Serkis wouldn't necessarily need to play Gollum again. The new Lord of the Rings movies will be set in the Third Age, and Gollum is around then. He recently starred in The Batman as Alfred and on the Star Wars TV series Andor as Kino. Beyond motion-capture roles, Serkis is an accomplished traditional actor. He recently recalled how he was mocked for playing Gollum but in the end, Serkis would prove to be a pioneer for motion-capture roles and make a career out of it. Serkis played the motion-capture character Gollum in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. A report said efforts are being made to "woo back" Jackson for the new films. In any event, this is a key piece of news because the trio were not involved in Amazon's Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Jackson, Walsh, and Boyens have been briefed on the new Lord of the Rings projects, but whether or not they will actually be involved in any new productions remains to be seen. I think that there are so many other potential Middle-earth projects which could come about, and if they're doing them, I would, of course, jump at the chance to have that relationship rekindled… Middle-earth has never left me," Serkis said. "They are the best and most incredible people to work with.
Referring to Jackson, Walsh, and Boyens as his "second family," Serkis said he would leap at the chance to return. And so, yes, if some opportunity were to come up, it would be an amazing thing."īefore this, Serkis said pretty much the same thing in April about potentially coming back to The Lord of the Rings series. "I love their sensibility and their take it's filmmaking on a different kind of level. "I've spent so many years making films with them," Serkis said.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Serkis said Peter Jackson and writing partners Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens are "a second family to me." Jackson, Walsh, and Boyens are not confirmed to be coming back yet, but if they do, Serkis would jump at the opportunity to be involved. Actor Andy Serkis, who famously played Gollum in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings movie series, has said for at least a second time that he would be interested in coming back for the newly announced Lord of the Rings films.
