Tolkien made. “Tolkien created one of the most extraordinary and inspiring stories of all time,” reacts Bayona. “As a big fan it is an honor for me to join this fantastic team.” Bayona’s most recent work is Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, which raised 1.3 billion dollars worldwide last year. He has also directed films such as The Impossible, A Monster Calls and The Orphanage.

The three companies were approached by Tolkien Estate to talk about a prequel from The Fellowship of the Ring. What exactly fans can expect is not yet known.
