New Images: ‘The Hobbit’ | E!

The Hobbit will be a trilogy: Peter Jackson has confirmed that The Hobbit will be released as three films, not two. But is there enough story for that? Jackson, in an open letter posted on his Facebook page, seems confident:

We know how much of the story of Bilbo Baggins, the Wizard Gandalf, the Dwarves of Erebor, the rise of the Necromancer, and the Battle of Dol Guldur will remain untold if we do not take this chance. The richness of the story of The Hobbit, as well as some of the related material in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings, allows us to tell the full story of the adventures of Bilbo Baggins and the part he played in the sometimes dangerous, but at all times exciting, history of Middle-earth.
