Viggo Moretenson pretty much stole the show as Aragorn in The Lord Of The Rings movies, but since he is not in The Hobbit(except in the supplemental appendices from the book that tied the two stories together) it was doubtful that Gullermo Del Toro and Peter jackson would have Mortenson back to reprise the role in their upcoming movie adaptation of The Hobbit.
Well, we already know that Del Toro will be taking a few liberties with the story, and now it seems quite possible that we will be seeing Aragorn striding about Middle Earth once again...
According to movieweb, who were interviewing Mortenson about his new movie, The Road, the actor said he had lots of fun making the original trilogy and would love to return...
"My character is around at times -- in the middle, But it would only be if they made a second movie or connecting movie that connected The Hobbit to The Lord Of The Rings that I might appear, which would be great."
As we know, there will be two movies! So lets hope this happens. Yeah I know we don't see him in the book, but we don't see a lot of things that happen during the events of The Hobbit but that we hear about(What happened to Gandalf after the start of the story, the hunt for Gollum etc) so would it be so bad if we actually got to see them in a movie?
