The LA Time's Hero Complex blog reports that there are rumors that the name of the lead in Guillermo del Toro's The Hobbit will be announced next week at Comic-Con.

Some of the names mentioned are fairly large including David Tennant, James McAvoy (Wanted), Daniel Radcliffe and even Jack Black.

Jack Black seems unlikely but Tennant and McAvoy could be interesting choices.

Who would you cast as Bilbo Baggins in the upcoming, The Hobbit?

I don't care really as long as its someone decent, and they have this as there theme song

The comic-con casting has been debunked already.

Martin Freeman.

Ewan McGregor would be terrible casting, as would any of the little stick men that are rumored.

GLaDOS · 07-21-2009, 01:57 AM

Alan Rickman

Batman1980 · 07-21-2009, 01:58 AM

LOL he's supposed to be a YOUNG Bilbo, isn't Rickman like 60?

WOW. That came out of no where. I'm guessing you've recently talked to him?
