BREAKING – UK Hobbit Release Date Changed

Posted by on July 5, 2012 at 4:53 pm

Updated 9 July: RELEASE DATE LATEST: 14 December confirmed

News is coming through of a change in the UK release date for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey from 14th to 26th December.

Middle-Earth News has contacted New Line for confirmation and will keep you posted. But the Film Distributors Association, Empireonline and IMDB are all showing 26th December date.

Of course, there may be a very valid reason for the change but for now, no explanation has been offered, so UK fans are, not suprisingly, feeling frustrated.
