But I agree! Bad move, but I doubt it's true, I have not seen thisa article anywhere but on one of the two links you showed me. I'm sure Del Torro meets with many actors, being at the top of the movie biz, and we should not assume that Del Torro's future meetings will all be about The Hobbit. This is just one of them rumours, like the Rowan Atkinson as Bilbo rumour.
