Well, that's the plan, anyway. Movie projects have been known to
change plans as they proceed. We can but hope.

Who is he, and what qualifies (or disqualifies) him for the job? alt.fan.tolkien has a thorough discussion of this issue.

As for me, if PJ approved him, he is disqualified.

Who is he,

"Stephen Tyrone Colbert is an American comedian, writer, producer,
political commentator, actor, and television host."

and what qualifies (or disqualifies) him for the job?

'Qualifies": He's an over-egoed celebrity with piles of money and
over-hyped influence. He's also an obsessive Tolkien
fan who finagled a cameo appearance in one of
The Hobbit movies.

'Disqualifies': He is an American comedian, writer, producer,
political commentator, actor, and television host,
with a massive ego.

Sounds like a buddy of J.D. Vance, who is alleged to be a Tolkien fan.

Colbert is no fan of Trump the Chump though. Trump basically got him
fired from "The Late Show", as Trump always does with anyone who has
more intelligence than him or simply disagrees with him.

As with any attempt to film TLotR it should be ignored.

If you do not hate Trump,you do not love this country.
