This morning, The Hobbit trilogy director Peter Jackson posted on his Facebook page that Gandalf's time in Middle Earth is at an end.

"Seconds ago we finished our last shot with Gandalf. The end of an incredible adventure that began in 1999. I'm feeling very sad right now."



Adam Brown (who plays Ori in the films) had this to say about his fellow actor's last day.




Although it isn't the end for the trilogy, this is truly an end of an era for one of the best characters ever to grace the movie screen.
