Andy Serkis revives Gollum and takes on directing The Hunt for Gollum
He admits the character haunts him even in his dreams.
Andy Serkis revives the role of Gollum in the film The Hunt for Gollum, which he will also direct. The British actor confides that the return unsettles him even in his sleep: "I sleep very poorly, my mind is boiling," he adds, wondering whether he is directing Gollum or the other way around. This actor-director double-hat now occupies a large part of his thoughts, even at night. According to AlloCiné, he explained that the creature imagined by J.R.R. Tolkien has never really left him, making the project both stimulating and exhausting.
