Brand?


In Reply To
The only titbit I came across was that the original ending of the first film was when Brand, silhouetted as a large man with a cocked arrow, stood above the river-drowned Hobbits after their escape from Mirkwood. I'd be interested to know about more changes between the two-film and three-film script, if anyone's in the know.


You meant Bard. King Brand was Bard's grandson and could be in a future film that covers the Siege of Erebor near the end of the War of the Ring.

The original two-movie timeline, back when Guillermo del Toro was slated to direct, would have adapted the book in the first film; the second movie would have been the "bridge" film covering events outside of the narrative of the book and leading up to The Lord of the Rings. When del Toro blocked out the events of the novel, he realized that a two-part adaptation would work better for him.
