While nothing has been officially signed just yet, it sounds like a lock that Hellboy 2 director and all around cool guy Guillermo del Toro will take over the directorial reigns from Lord of the Rings trilogy mastermind Peter Jackson and helm the two planned Hobbit films for New Line.I don't know why Hellboy 2 is cited as an example of del Toro's work when he directed Pan's freaking Labyrinth, but wev. This is great news, as far as I'm concerned. He was totally on my shortlist of WANT directors if Jackson wasn't going to make himself available for my wet dreams. (Some nerve.)
H/T to Mark, who says, aptly: "Jackson and del Toro. Working together. ON THE SAME FILM. HOLY LORD, THE POSSIBILITIES."
