Of course, one of my friends astutely pointed out that on IMDB (which is ever so reliable at the moment) Itaril's only listed for the first film... if so, I don't know what's better, her not being in the second film, or the high chances of her dying tragically in the first!

Welcome to the 'Downs, Jolly, and I hope you enjoy being dead!

Better than that, during the Battle of Five Armies Itaril can leap in front of Legolas and say while she is wheezing her last wheeze, "*gasp* Some people *choke* do crazy things *snort* when they're in love."

Maybe the fact that Itaril will fall for Legolas (assuming it's him, but I'm 99% sure it really is) is not that bad. I mean, think of this: she could have fallen for Bilbo instead. Or she could have been Thorin's love interest and convince him to renounce his greedy ways (then, of course, she will be quickly dismissed from the king's guard, because seriously now, a relationship between a member of Thranduil's guard and a dwarf?. How positively scandalous!). See? It could always be worse.

I mean, I'd fall for Thorin if he's played by Richard Armitage. :P

Seriously, though, I really hope that P.J. doesn't screw up this story too much. I thought that he did a fairly decent job with LOTR, in spite of some painful character rewrites, but from what I've been hearing, I'm more than a little worried about the fate of the hobbit.

No, actually, that would be better!

Well I say she should have been Bombur's love interest instead.

Coax him into joining weight watchers and the like...

Poor Tolkien is probably doing back flips, front flips, cartwheels and any other type of exercise you can think of, in his grave currently. I'm not against her completely, but I knew something like this would happen, given you don't see any females- save for Lobelia (sp?) I think- in the book (rather, none that Tolkien had paid specific attention to).

Knowing PJ's track record, Leggy and Itaril will be out fighting heck off hinges in the Bot5A and she'll do exactly what Galadriel said:

How about Bilbo's long lost ex-wife?

Ronan didn't sign the contract yet! She says here that she will play Itaril, but what if she changes her mind all of a sudden?
