Everyone knows this news, right?

But will there be hobbits? Backstory before Fellowship is fine but what of hobbits? Will we see Bilbo? Young Frodo?

I love Aragorn's story- i even really liked "Born of Hope"-the fan film from several years ago, but hobbits are in MIddle-earth and young Bilbo, Frodo, Merry, Pippin and Sam would be most appreciated as well....
We need some hobbit fans to come up and demand some scenes! :)

[EDIT]
Maybe it'll be too young for Pippin and i'm reading that the focus is Aragorn and his backstory but there can be AU of Aragorn visiting the Shire? Most likely meet with Bilbo, not the younger hobbits. I have to see the timeline again to see when everyone is born. I know that Gandalf and Aragorn met 2954 and Frodo is born 2968.. lots of discussion is about Aragorn and his journeys and yes, there is a lot to film. I wonder if they can sneak in guarding of the Shire? Dialogue between Gandalf and Aragorn about the Shire-folk? :hopeful:

It's so great. I loved reading about how they diagnose Gollum and also about how the whole Moria stabbing of Frodo by the cave troll would've given great injury to Frodo, using physics to explain!

Check out the link which gives the links to the scientific articles here:
"Could Frodo really have survived being stabbed by a cave troll, even if he was wearing impenetrable mithril armor?"
