Ian McKellen will be reprising his beloved role of Gandalf in the upcoming film versions of “The Hobbit” according to an interview in a British film magazine. McKellen told Empire magazine that recently slated “Hobbit” director Guillermo del Toro told him he will once again be playing fiction’s most famous Wizard saying:
“He confirmed that I would be reprising the role…Obviously, it’s not a part that you turn down, I loved playing Gandalf.”
With “The Hobbit” being the prequel to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, expect to see Gandalf the Grey as seen above. In the video clip below you can check out Gandalf the Grey’s last stand from “The Fellowship of the Ring”.
