Great! It'll be interesting to see how Saruman will be portrayed this time. Think I've mentioned this before, but I'd love to see some more "nice Saruman" scenes, I love the scene where he greets Gandalf in FotR

Agreed this is good news. Does anyone know if he relented on his 'no New Zealand stance' or has PJ relented and agreed to shoot the WC stuff elsewhere?

Have you warmed to the White Council, Mr Tyrant?

No- I still think it will be an unholy mess- but it would have been even worse had they gone ahead with it with someone else as Saruman. And I know what a huge Tolkien fan Mr Lee is and have some small hope an actor of his reputation and calibre might be able to occasionally turn to PJ and say 'you need to change this its nonsense Tolkien would never have written that.'

Just curious but is Lee confirmed or not? In the link Chris provides on the Frodo thread it says that; 'Orlando Bloom and Christopher Lee are currently in negotiations.' And that article is dated Jan 18th 2011.

As a belated answer to Petty's question, I think the answer is yes. Lee's official site still says that he is signed on and TORn's main cast page lists him as confirmed. I assume that the article from the 28th was simply in error.
