It is a fact that there is actors who were born to play a character. Ian McKeller is one of them and with Gandalf he embellished it throughout the Lord of the Rings trilogy. However, before starting the casting there were other priorities when choosing who would be the famous magician. However, everything turned out the way the fans wanted and the result has been one of the great film performances.
Ian Mckellen has given an interview with the media Variety where he talked about the actors who rejected the role of Gandalf: “I was certainly not the first choice for Gandalf. Anthony Hopkins rejected it. Sean Connery certainly did. Now they’re all coming out of nowhere, and I hope they feel stupid“, he points out, in statements collected by VidaExtra.
In addition, he has also discussed the issue of retirement, and has made it clear that he is not thinking about it: “Retire to do what? I have never been unemployed, but I am aware that at any time something can happen to me that prevents me from returning to work. But as long as the knees hold and the memory remains intact, Why won’t I continue? “I really think I’m pretty good at acting now,” he says.
What is the next Lord of the Rings game?
Leaving aside the comments that Ian Mckellen has made, the next title to be released in the Lord of the Rings saga is The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria.
