Guillermo del Toro has revealed that he intends to split the The Hobbit film project he’s leading into two parts, thereby making sure he’s able to properly tell the classic fantasy tale. He told MTV: “I’m doing only two movies because I felt that that was the best way to service the book. I’m not saying the other notion was not discussed. We discussed it a large degree. But I felt that for me, the two films were the way to go. That decision to split the book came mainly from how long the book was and the White Council or the Dol Guldur additions.” He continues: “There is only one place to break it really… And everybody knows it. What we’re doing is because we have the relationship between Bilbo and Thorin and all the dwarves, there is a logical place for that relationship. There is a moment in the book where something is accomplished that allows us to say, ‘Okay, on to the next one after this.’
