Considering Christopher Tolkien's comments...

... in his recent interview I doubt he even considered selling the rights to The Quest of Erebor or anything else. To my knowledge the filmmakers have not (at least yet) claimed that they even asked for the rights to this text, or anything from Unfinished Tales. They are fleshing out history gleaned from the Appendices as far as I know, and only have the film rights to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, the film rights to these both being sold long ago now. When The Children of Hurin was published the Estate commented that no film is being considered (it was still on their website last time I looked, in one of their FAQs).

Personally, I don't think you can make a trilogy without filming the entire book
