Sir Ian McKellan and Orlando bloom have been chatting on London based radio station Capital FM about having to go back for pick up shots for The Two Towers,

McKellan: "It's great that we have done these three films. But I talked to Peter Jackson, the director of 'Lord Of The Rings' the other day, and we are going to have to go back because there are pick-ups to do, little extra shots. We were also working in studios that weren't properly soundproofed and so all the dialog had to be dubbed in the first film. You can't tell, but it's true, and we're going to have to do that with the other two films, so we haven't finished. But the basic shooting is done".

Bloom: "I'm quite looking forward to going back for those pick-ups. Really hard work - surfing, snowboarding, skydiving, alongside filming 'Lord Of The Rings'".

2/1/02 The Two Towers Updated
An introduction to the film that will be the second in the Lord Of The Rings trilogy, brought to the screen by New Zealander Peter Jackson and New Line Cinema.

The Two Towers will see a few changes from that of the book. For example, we already know that part of The Two Towers was introduced at the end of Fellowship, in particular the final battle. in The Two Towers, the roles of Rohan King Theoden and his nephew Eomer have been extended and there is the introduction of enemy warrior Lurtz. Jackson also says that the Battle Of Helms Deep will blow moviegoers away, "It's the Uraki vs. the elves and the men at Helms Deep, which is an old fort. Let me just say it's very bloody." We're also told that we will see a lot more of CGI character Gollum in the second film. Another central theme will be the development of the relationship between Arwen (Liv Tyler) and Aragorn (Viggo Moretensen). "We'll actually see a lot more of this love story develop in the second movie, but we have a great kiss in this one...Arwen believes in her man so much that she gives up part of her existence, but not her full existence. She will do anything to spend time with him. Anyway, she has been alive for 3,000 years. She'd rather spend a few short years happy than eternity without love." Tyler told SunTimes (also appeared at Coming Soon). The fact that Tyler's character appears in the film at all is a surprise as in the books, she doesn't appear again until the Return Of The King.

Jackson has also spoken out about the title of the film, "It's true that I've thought about what that title means now (between the film and the September 11th tragedy). I just pray that by the time the second movie comes out, it won't cause any controversy. It's a 50-year-old book. We can't change the title. Tolkien fans would crucify us." (appeared in the Chicago Sun Times).
