Stephen Colbert Writes Lord of the Rings Movie

On March 25th, Warner Bros. just announced that Stephen Colbert is writing the script for the next

Lord of the Rings movie. The studio tapped the comedian after his late night show wraps up,

giving him free time this summer. Director Peter Jackson revealed the news in a fun YouTube video,

surprising fans with the unexpected pairing. Colbert has long been a huge fan of the books

and Jackson's films. He plans to team up with his son Peter, also a screenwriter on the project.

The timing worked out perfectly since CBS decided to end the late show was Stephen Colbert

after years of strong reviews. The franchise has a massive history, starting with the original

trilogy that packed theaters from 2001 to 2003. That was followed by three habit films between 2012

and 2014, keeping fans hooked on middle-earth adventures. Right now, a new movie called

Hunford Gollum is in pre-production and Colbert's involvement adds fresh excitement to the lineup.

With his humor and passion, this could bring a whole new twist to the story.

Fans are buzzing about how Colbert's style might shape the script, blending epic fantasy with his

signature wit as the project moves forward. I'm Cory with the story. That's your entertainment
