Video game publisher Embracer has announced a new movie deal to put The Lord of the Rings back on the big screen.
Embracer has had a mixed time of late, with its big budget Saints Row reboot failing to find an audience and its Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic remake from Aspyr reportedly being placed “on pause”.
For Embracer, this lucrative film deal with New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures is far more positive news. “Multiple” movies are planned, expanding on “the revered works of JRR Tolkien”, including elements from The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
