Day 2 of the con & it started with a Lord of The Rings Online panel. Pretty cool stuff coming up in the new ex-pac. The panelists talked a bit about the lore of Tolkien & how we, as fans of the Lord of The Rings would receive the new content. Much like how we might receive new information about the upcoming Hobbit movies.
The afternoon panel was with Craig Parker, Haldir in the LoTR trilogy. He jokingly speculated about whether or not Haldir would make an appearance in the Hobbit, perhaps in the Battle of The Five Armies. He admitted that if Guillermo del Toro asked him to be in it, he would jump at the chance. As of now, there isn’t any firm word on if del Toro would include this in the films.
Tomorrow’s panel on rumours and speculation on the Hobbit might reveal more! For now, sleep beckons.
