Right my bad, it is his father Thranduil. For some reason I was thinking Prince and not King. I haven't read the book in a while.
Originally they wanted to do a three part trilogy that would involve the war of the ring in the first two, and tie into the Hobbit for the third. This was before the original falling out between the studio and Jackson. I guess they settled on two movies, ah well two is better than one which is better than none!
I imagine it will follow a similar style to LOTR, the way the footage was set up and digitally enhanced. But I predict Peter Jackson ends up directing this, not many people could fill his shoes and do as good a job as was done in LOTR.
I am interested to hear what this sequel will entail. I would almost rather they just split the Hobbit into two movies instead of making a sequel, then they would have to cut out so much less.
