Fox Searchlight Pictures is producing a new film portraying J.R.R Tolkien's life. The film is written by David Gleeson and directed by Dome Karukoski. Tolkien himself is played by Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road; X-men: Days of Future Past), and Tolkien's wife, Edith Bratt is played by Lily Collins (The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones). The movie is listed as still being filmed on IMDB, and not much more information beyond that is available. The working title of the film is "A Light in the Darkness". We'll keep you posted as more information becomes available. With this film in the works and Amazon's new Lord of the Rings series in development, it is definitely an exciting time to be a Tolkien fan! Jump past the break to see four stills from the movie.
