Amazon’s mega-budgeted “Lord of the Rings” television series has the green light to resume production in New Zealand, and ex-cast member Will Poulter assures fans the final product is “going to be incredible.” News broke last September that the “Black Mirror” and “The Revenant” actor was joining the “Lord of the Rings” series in a leading role, but Poulter dropped out of the project in December. Amazon never formally announced Poulter’s hiring or departure, but the actor tells NME in a new interview that he was signed on at one point to star.
“Unfortunately, there’s no particularly interesting story, other than the fact that there was a last-minute change to the schedule, which meant that there was a clash for me and I was unable to do it,” Poulter said about why he dropped out of the highly-anticipated “Rings” series. “I have utmost respect for everyone involved in that project.
