TOLDJA! James Nesbitt Lands ‘The Hobbit’

• Great to see James Nesbitt landing a role that may give him even more visibility. Loved him in Murphy’s Law and can’t figure out why he hasn’t made it “bigger”.

  • Nesbitt’s an overrated ham of near Shatner proportions.

    • You say that like it’s a bad thing.

• NOOOOOOO!!! James Nesbit is a good actor but he is so overexposed. Every second middle-aged male role on UK TV is performed by Nesbit. He needs to take a holiday, give us a chance to miss him!

• My, my. Now we know what Peter Jackson has been doing the past year – watching a lot of British television shows! The Hobbit casting is turning into a who’s who of UK soaps and drama. All these actors are doubtless cheap and available, but it wouldn’t hurt to give some proper A list talent a call.

• I’ve never heard of any of these actors, except Martin Freeman. Maybe it’s just they haven’t had a lot of exposure in America yet.
