J.R.R. Tolkien biopic Tolkien gets a new trailer

March 6, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Fox Searchlight Pictures has released a new trailer for Tolkien, the upcoming biopic exploring the formative years of legendary author J.R.R. Tolkien (Nicholas Hoult), the man responsible for creating the Middle-earth adventures The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings; watch it here…

The film explores the formative years of the orphaned author as he finds friendship, love and artistic inspiration among a group of fellow outcasts at school. This takes him into the outbreak of World War I, which threatens to tear the “fellowship” apart. All of these experiences would inspire Tolkien to write his famous Middle-earth novels.

Tolkien sees Nicholas Hoult joined in the cast by Lily Collins, Colm Meaney, Anthony Boyle, Patrick Gibson, Tom Glynn-Carney, Craig Roberts, Laura Donnelly, Genevieve O’Reilly, Pam Ferris and Derek Jacobi. It is set for release on May 3rd 2019 in the UK and May 10th 2019 in North America.
