Ain't It Cool News is reporting that Brian Fox is a big contender to play a dwarf in Guillermo del Toro's upcoming film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Hobbit"
The film follows Bilbo Baggins, a Hobbit who journeys to the Lonely Mountain accompanied by a group of dwarves to reclaim a treasure taken from them by the dragon Smaug.
Along the way there are adventures with trolls and elves, a battle with goblins, the naming of Bilbo's sword as Sting after a battle with some spiders, escaping from Wargs, and a barrel ride in a river.
I myself is pretty excited to see this film already.
"The Hobbit" is scheduled to hit theatres in 2011.
