‘The Hobbit’ Director Guillermo Del Toro recently spoke about rumors regarding ‘The Hobbit’. When asked about the film not being greenlit he said, “We may say what we want but until there are two scripts delivered and budgets and schedules to support them we will be all under a yellow light of development. We have not stopped. As I have reported in the past, we are scouting, designing (my last three-hour meeting with Weta was this morning) and will not stop. BUT the greenlight and thus commencement can only be granted by the studio. Pete [Jackson] as producer and me as director will do everything we can in the meantime.”
He also addressed rumored issues with the studio saying, “Is there any trouble brewing with WB? Not at all. All I can say is that they reacted to our delivered script with great delight and we have been receiving strong support in our development.”
