     Preserve the Mystique of Middle-earth: Cast a Fresh Face for Arwen in 'The Hunt for Gollum  

Arwen Undómiel is an ethereal symbol of hope and immortality. To honor J.R.R. Tolkien’s vision and the legacy of the original films, we need an actress who can embody her timeless, otherworldly grace without the distraction of a pre-existing superstar persona. While we respect Anya Taylor-Joy’s talent, Hollywood’s recent trend of casting the same few 'blockbuster' faces in every major IP is breaking the immersion. We call for an end to this 'copy-paste' casting culture. Middle-earth was built on the discovery of new stars. We urge Warner Bros. and Andy Serkis to give a breakthrough opportunity to a talented newcomer who can truly 'become' Arwen. In other words, please do not make Seren and Arwen into the exact same character. We don't want to see a celebrity playing Arwen; we want to see Arwen herself.

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.
