Not sure there's enough material there for THAT to happen.

Loads of material for the 60-odd years between the Hobbit and LotR. The re-occupation of Dol Goldur in Mirkwood, Sauron revealing himself in Mordor. Political stuff in Gondor. The opening of Moria. Rangers fighting off bad guys in the North.
And the Silmarilian is great. Tolkien was a better myth-maker than he was a novelist. I couldn't get through LotR the last time I tried to read it, but the Silmarilion still holds up, if you're into sagas and history.
