According to bussinessweek.com, MGM and New Line Cinema have agreed to make two prequels to the Lord of the Rings movies. The first of the two is set to be released around Christmas of 2010.

Apparently after a nasty settlement dispute, Peter Jackson has signed on to work on both films and was the one who decided to turn the story into two movies.

Who’s going to play who and whether or not the films will live up to the expectations held by most after the Lord of the Rings trilogy is something we will have to wait for.

      Oh I’m sure that he does, but now that he’s on top why would he not want to do the films of any filmmaker’s dreams?
