Tolkien Fans Release Their Own Film on Web

November 30th, 2009

Would you want to be in a movie that is watched all around the world? Some people would be willing to pay for the privilege. And some people do it just for the love of adventure and a good story. In the science fiction and fantasy community many people make fan films and upload them to the Internet. While this activity does not normally merit much comment, one movie is generating quite a buzz across the Web.

Launched as an all-volunteer effort in 2006, “Born of Hope” is set in the same cinematic universe as Peter Jackson’s “Lord of the Rings” movies. That is, the film-makers decided that “Born of Hope” should be compatible with, and resemble as much as possible, Jackson’s movie trilogy, which was based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings.

Ever since the Tolkien forum Web first learned about the project fans have been excited about seeing another movie set in (or paying homage to) Peter Jackson’s Middle-earth. The only movies that have been sanctioned for inclusion in the Jackson canon are Guillermo del Toro’s Hobbit movies, which are scheduled for release in 2011 and 2012. But fans are willing to make an exception for rare high quality fan films.

More information has been posted at bornofhope.com, the official home site of the fan film production. The movie is scheduled for general release on the Internet on December 1, 2009. Admission is free.
