Ian McKellen is happy to play the character, Gandalf the Grey, again.
ACTOR Ian McKellen is only too happy to resume the character Gandalf in The Hobbit films after bringing the wizard to life initially in The Lord Of The Rings (LOTR) films.
According to the 74-year-old thespian, he knows this character is well-loved as he is often approached by fans of all ages wherever he goes. He finds both the stories written by J.R.R. Tolkien equally wonderful and the location shoot in New Zealand has been an amazing experience.
