It sounds cool to me too. I'm just a little concerned about the director for the first one.

I'd love to see it too ... managed to snag a film on Direct TV that talks about Lewis & Tolkien and their discussions about Christianity ... was oriented towards catholicism ... titled "Tolkien's Lord of The Rings; A Catholic World View"
The film presented both Tolkien's view and the agnostic Lewis' view ... and Lewis' eventual conversion ... it was worth watching more than once ...
While the views expressed were definitely not mine it did show how Tolkien's faith is reflected in his works ... very heady but told in an entertaining way ...
I will keep my eyes open for this new films release ... any biopic will be more than we have now ...
