 Director Sam Raimi confirmed to Sci Fi Wire that he has had a conversation with New Line head Robert Shaye regarding the possibility of directing The Hobbit -a prequel to the uber-popular Lord of the Rings trilogy. "I spoke to him once, so it's a little more overblown, I think," said Raimi while promoting Spider-Man 3. "That's why I don't want to pretend that it's bigger than it is. I had one conversation about the possibility of it, and that's really where it's at."
Reports of New Line approaching Raimi erupted following a lawsuit filed by Rings director Peter Jackson for reported fees owed him for the first Lord of the Rings film. As for whether or not The Hobbit would be Raimi's next picture? "I'd have to know that [Peter Jackson] was OK with [me directing] it. It's really his picture and Bob Shaye's picture," said Raimi. "The truth is, I just don't know what I'm going to do next. That's the most honest answer I can give you. And I can't honestly say, even though I have spoken to Bob Shaye, that I don't know that I could honestly say that anything's been offered to me until some time in the future, because it just wouldn't be exactly right. Or true."
