Warner Bros and director Peter Jackson recently revealed that they will turn "The Hobbit" in a trilogy, which means that a third film will be added. Now comes word that it's set for a July 18th, 2014 release.
The studio also swapped some titles around. The first film is still called "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" and is still set for December 14th. The sequel is now called "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" and will hit theaters on December 13th, 2013. The third film is called "The Hobbit: There and Back Again," which was the title of the second installment.
Looking at the release dates, the second film will come an entire year after the first film. But the third installment will come only seven months after the second one. "We wanted to have a shorter gap between the second and third films," said Warners. "Opening in July affords us not only the perfect summer tentpole, but fans will have less time to wait for the finale of this epic adventure."
