Charles Mihelich had a chance to speak with Ron Perlman.  Perlman talked about not being interested in what people say on the internet and never reading blogs because he doesn’t want anyone to dictate his own opinion of himself and his craft.  It came as a surprise to him that rumors are floating around that he will be in Guillermo Del Toro’s ‘The Hobbit’ films. Is there any credibility to the rumors? “If that’s what Guillermo wants, then that would be nice.”

Perlman said that he’s only briefly spoken with Del Toro since ‘Hellboy II’ because they’ve both been so busy, but they remain close friends.  From the looks of it, if Del Toro asks Perlman will say yes, and it’s likely that Del Toro will ask, so there’s at least a good fighting chance that we’ll be seeing Ron Perlman in ‘The Hobbit’.

This sounds pretty good to me. I’d love to see Ron Perlman in ‘The Hobbit’. What about you – do you also want him to be a part of the Tolkien world created by Guillermo Del Toro?
