Modern fantasy would not exist without J.R.R. Tolkien and LORD OF THE RINGS… and that most definitely includes my own A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE.\u00a0\u00a0 Tolkien’s work redefined fantasy, and all of us who have followed in his footsteps owe him a profound debt.<\/p>\n

TOLKIEN, the new motion picture about JRRT’s early life, aspires to answer that question.<\/p>\n

I’m thrilled to say that I’m heading out to LA for the premiere, May 8 at the Regency Westwood Village.\u00a0\u00a0 After the film, I will be moderating a discussion and Q-and-A with stars Nicholas Hoult, Lily Collins, and director Dome Karukoski.<\/p>\n

For those of you who cannot make it to the premiere in person, have no fear.\u00a0\u00a0 We’ll be streaming the Q&A on Facebook.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Head to the TOLKIEN Facebook page (@TolkienFilm) and tune into the Live Stream that will start at 9PM PST. Here is the link to the Facebook Page: www.facebook.com\/TolkienFilm\/\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

See you in the Shire!<\/p>\n
