Now that Christopher has died, we may get far more Tolkien adaptations. Christopher was apparently the one who held the estate back from selling all of the rights.
So "The Hobbit 4: Silmaril Boogaloo!" will be released late 2021.

Day one but only if they give the Elrond role to Beaker. That would make the council of Elrond absolutely outstanding.
