Great news Peter Jackson has agreed to make the Hobbit.

LOS ANGELES -- New Line Cinema, a division of Time Warner Inc. said Tuesday that it has signed on Peter Jackson, director of the award-winning "Lord Of The Rings" film series, to direct two films based on "The Hobbit," a prequel to the "Rings" trilogy. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, partially owned by Sony Corp. , will co-produce the films.
