"Rings" actor Mortensen unlikely to repeat role

Viggo Mortensen
"Lord of the Rings" series is a great movie. Viggo Mortensen is main actor of the series.He doesn't expect to reprise his Aragorn character in the next installments of Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" series, the actor revealed to Movies.com.

Actually,the news may not surprise those familiar with J.R.R. Tolkien's "Hobbit" novel, as Aragorn did not appear in it.

The Danish-American actor Mortensen told the movies blog that producer Peter Jackson had approached him about the possibility of appearing in "An Unexpected Journey," the first installment of the two-part prequel series.

  "Lord of the Rings" series's main actor confidently said he would have been willing to participate. But as it stands now,he also said "I'm not in it unless there is some last-minute plan they have. But I thought I would have heard of it by now ... Aragorn is half elf and also lives a couple hundred years or more and he could be in a bridge, but I have to assume it isn't going to happen."

It is true that while Mortensen won't be reprising his role, a fleet of other familiar faces are involved, including Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Cate Blanchett, Christopher Lee and Orlando Bloom. The cast could be making an appearance in theaters sooner than expected. A trailer is expected around Christmas, Gollum actor Andy Serkis told IGN. "It's just around the corner," he said.

However, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" is due in theaters December 14, 2012. Its sequel, "There and Back Again," has a release date of December 13, 2013. Jackson has been posting production updates at TheHobbitBlog.com.

Actually,  "Lord of the Rings" series is a remarkable and too fine movie.
