The Hunt for Gollum (2024) is a fan film set within the world of J.R.R. Tolkienโs The Lord of the Rings. While there is a previous fan film called The Hunt for Gollum released in 2009, the one youโre referring to in 2024 could be imagined as a new adaptation or reimagining of that concept, featuring notable actors such as Tom Holland and Andy Serkis.
In this version, Tom Holland could potentially play a young Aragorn (given his previous roles in adventure and action films), who is tasked with tracking down Gollum to prevent the creature from revealing the whereabouts of the One Ring. Andy Serkis, well-known for his iconic portrayal of Gollum in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, would return to reprise his role, adding depth and continuity to the characterโs journey.
This film could explore Aragornโs dangerous pursuit of Gollum through Middle-earth, filled with tense encounters, dark landscapes, and the constant looming threat of Sauronโs forces. It would likely showcase the complex relationship between the characters, highlighting Gollumโs torment and Aragornโs determination to stop Sauronโs power from growing.
This reimagining would appeal to both Lord of the Rings fans and new audiences, combining beloved characters with modern cinematic techniques and star power.
