‘The Lord of the Rings’ Cast Reunites For Anniversary Screenings – ScreenCrush

Its hard to believe but its been 20 years sinceThe Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ringsdebuted in theaters. (Then again, it feels like its been 20 years since we were able to go to a movie theater at all, so time is sort of a relative construct these days.) Amazon is making a newLord of the Rings TV series, but despite the title thats really more of a prequel series set hundreds of years before the movies with a totally new cast of characters. If you want to see what the classicLord of the Rings gang are up to these days, though, there is a way.

The Alamo Drafthouse announced a series of 20th anniversary screenings ofThe Lord of the RingsTrilogy that will play exclusively in theaters this spring. According to the press release, the reunion Q&A content will be initially exclusively to theatrical screenings of the new 4K remastering ofThe Lord of the Rings Trilogy. As part of their new Support Local Cinemas campaign, Alamo Drafthouse is making these Q&A presentations available for all theaters around the globe entirely for free.

All three films will play with their own Q&A.The Fellowship of the Ringfeatures Elijah Wood, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, and Dominic Monaghan.The Two Towershas Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom, Liv Tyler, and Viggo Mortensen. Finally,The Return of the King has Andy Serkis, Ian McKellen, and director Peter Jackson. The Q&As are hosted byThe Late Shows Stephen Colbert.
