On February 28, 2013, it was confirmed there is a new release date for There and Back Again.

The movie's release date has been rescheduled from July 18, 2014 to December 17, 2014.[1]

Trivia

  • The film will be the last film adaptation of The Lord of the Rings and related works, as the Tolkien Estate has forbidden any more films from being made (at least for now).
  • The title comes from Bilbo's fictional volume in the Red Book of Westmarch: There and Back Again: A Hobbit's Tale.
  • In Sir Christopher Lee's most recent Christmas Video, he has speculated upon the movie and that Saruman The White will have a lot more screen time in this movie.
