.AndySerkis to Narrate 'The Silmarillion' Audiobook [Exclusive] He also shares his reaction to 'The Rings of Power.'

If there's one name, one voice, one persona that fans of The Lord of the Rings can attach to film series, it is that of Andy Serkis, whose performance as the wretched, tortured Sméagol — aka Gollum — has remained a cultural touchstone for the last 20 years. More recently, Serkis dove back into the world of Tolkein, narrating the audiobook for The Hobbit in 2020, followed by the complete Lord of the Rings in 2021.

In an interview with Collider's own Steve Weintraub for his fantastic work on Andor, Serkis revealed that he's going to be narrating the audiobook for Tolkein's The Silmarillion, one of the influences behind Prime Video's wildly successful series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY When asked whether he'd been watching Rings of Power, and what his thoughts were, Serkis replied that he had seen and enjoyed the show. He went on to elaborate:

Yeah, I absolutely watched it, and it really - once you get through understanding the rules of it, and actually how loyal to the trilogy and the feel of the trilogy music by Howard Shore for the opening sequence, et cetera - I found it incredibly engaging, and I really, really enjoyed watching it.
