The Third Age

The Fellowship of the Ring was released in cinemas 19th of December (26th in Australia) and has become one of the biggest films of all time. Director Peter Jackson (Heavenly Creatures, The Frighteners) has undertaken the enormous task in bringing J.R.R. Tolkien’s vision to the big screen in three separate films. To do this Jackson has teamed up with writers Philippa Boyens and Stephen Sinclair (Heavenly Creatures) as well as writing partner Frances Walsh to do the screenplay.
