Galadriel in "The Hobbit?"

Legolas and Aragorn won't be there. Orlando Bloom wants to make a come back, but Jackson and Toro are a bit apprehensive about it.

Perhaps she has been cast to do the opening VO monologs, which would be perfectly in tune with the LotR films.

This actually makes sense . . . which leads me to believe that it won't happen.

In any case, the fact that Galadriel has no place in the story is not likely to sidetrack Mr. Jackson for very long.

Ya think?

One can at least make a somewhat logical stretch to include Galadriel, if they plan to do the White Council stuff to explain Gandalf's prolonged absence. One can even do a stretch to get Legolas in, since he was probably alive, and the story does involve his father and his army. But an adult Aragorn.... No. He was all of 10 when Thorin and Co. passed through Rivendell on their quest. And the notion of him playing Arathorn (a speculation I've heard elsewhere) is also right out, since Arathorn died 8 years before.

But that would little deter Jackson, alas. *sigh*
