I personally would like to see an unknown cast in the role. I know it doesn't work from a marketing stand point but I can't think of any big name actor that would be great casting for the role.

Just because he hasn't been contacted yet doesn't mean he isn't being considered....and i think he is. It's still long ways to go before anyone is cast for the film.

Haley Joel Osment. I'm not sure how old he looks now and he'd need to put some meat on his bones but for me, this kid is hands down one of the best actors in Hollywood. I'd love to see him as Bilbo.

The answer was the same: "it is absolutely not true, nobody contacted me about that." I was so disappointed. BTW, for any McAvoy fans, here the pix I tookof him after the meet: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ibwk/2570437920/ Yeah I got to interview James McAvoy in the Paris junket last monday and my last question was of course for the Hobbit rumor.

Reigned in he could work so I'm not sure if its worth all this panic. Bilbo is a bit of an ott plump character anyway from what i remember so I wasn't overly keen on McAvoy for the part Peter Jackson did an amicable job with Jack Black in King Kong.
