Gandalf flabbergasted

Sir Ian McKellen Closes the Book on any Future Gandalf Appearances

HaydnSpurrell HaydnSpurrell Recently appearing on Larry King Now (via Comic Book), McKellen ruled out, verbally, for good, ever returning to the most iconic role of his career.

"I think we've run out of material there (laughs). I think I've had it with Gandalf. Though I love going to New Zealand where they film it all, and they were great times. But I had about 15 years of it."

Even had the actor not ruled it out, it's near impossible that Gandalf will ever grace our screens from Middle Earth again, barring a reboot of the original trilogy. There was plenty of legal trouble surrounding the making of The Hobbit, so J.R.R. Tolkien's treasure trove of unfinished work is going to stay unfinished by the looks of it.

In any case, more films from Middle Earth might just start to exhaust us all. Let's leave it at the somewhat unsatisfactory conclusion that we were given.
