Funnily enough

The point I was making was one made by Andy Serkis. During pickups for Tintin he was asked to meet Guillermo, who naturally wanted him back as Gollum (he also aired the idea that he'd double as the Great Goblin which already is a little fishy to me: yes, Rhys-Davies did that with Treebeard but there are very few scenes where we cut back between his two roles whereas here...).

Guillermo showed him some of the visual work he was drumming up and Andy, reflecting on it years later, said "I love Guillermo's films: I think he's a brilliant filmmaker. But to redesign it in such a way that made you feel there was no continuity? The audience would have probably felt cheated."

One of the things that makes me feel Andy is right for this task.
