I wouldn't assume that the Hobbit Trilogy (spoilers) -

- is the last we'll see of Middle-Earth. Middle-Earth is quite the money-maker.
Depending on how well the 'invented' parts of the Hobbit Trilogy (Dol Guldur, White Council, etc ) are received by audiences, they just may decide to do a War in the North movie (or two).
Quite a few characters in the Hobbit (including those only in the movie version) survive until time of the War of the Ring. I would expect that a number of these characters will gain a certain amount of popularity, so the studios just may decide to jump at the chance to bring them back in a War of the Ring era film.
I would assume that a War in the North movie storyline would differ somewhat from what's written in the LOTR Appendices.
Returning characters could include:
- Thranduil.
- Celeborn.
- Galadriel.
- Dain Ironfoot.
- The surviving members of Thorin's company.
- Radagast.
- (Old) King Bain (as well as his son Brand. There could be a Bard II but film makers sometimes shy away from using characters with identical names.).
- Original Beorn (as opposed to his descendant Grimbeorn). Being a supernatural being, the shapeshifter could be assumed to have a longer lifespan than usual. (I've got this image of a grizzled old bear leading a group of others (most likely his descendants) in an ambush against Sauron's minions).
- Tauriel.
Obviously, in Tolkien's original writings, some of these characters are dead (and may actually be killed off in the movie Trilogy). But just as the opportunity was taken to bring back Galadriel, Legolas and Saruman, they could do the same with the Hobbit cast..
(Come to think of it, they can show the actual debut of the 'true' White Wizard. I wouldn't put it past Galadriel to send her Elves to retrieve Gandalf's corpse at some point, and all of a sudden, in the middle of some dramatic moment, he wakes up. That new staff of his looks quite Elven in design to me. Perhaps that's the Lady of Lórien's gift to the last member of the Fellowship of the Ring to visit her realm. That's something for 'The War in the North - Extended Edition', I think.).
