The official Warner Bros. X page has now shared a behind-the-scenes video announcing that production has commenced on the Lord of the Rings spinoff movie The Hunt for Gollum. The video opens on a comic bit of Andy Serkis, in full motion-capture regalia, walking onto the soundstage, asking what scene they’re doing first, and being told it’s one of his scenes. The camera follows him crouching on a pedestal and instantly getting into character to say, “And… action!” See the video below:
