A new Lord of the Rings movie, The Hunt for Gollum, is on the way. While one familiar face is back – Andy Serkis is reprising his role as Gollum, as well as being on directing duties – it's not yet been confirmed whether other iconic characters will show up once more in Middle-earth.
Speaking to The Times, Sir Ian McKellen says he has 'heard' that Gandalf will appear in The Hunt for Gollum but, as of yet, "there is no script, there is no offer, there is no plan." On whether he'd be up for a return as the wizard, McKellen jokingly replied, "If I'm alive."
