Sylvester McCoy cast in 'The Hobbit'
Ex-Doctor Who actor Sylvester McCoy has been cast in Peter Jackson's movie 'The Hobbit'.
The actor, who played The Doctor from 1987 to 1989, told fans at the Expo in Auckland on Friday that he has been in talks with director Jackson and co-writer Philippa Boyens last week, where he was offered the part of 'Radagast the Brown'.
Martin Freeman, who recently played Dr. John Watson in Steven Moffat's 'Sherlock', will take on the title role of 'Bilbo Baggins'.
Production on the film is expected to begin in 2011, and is due for release in 2012.
