The Hobbit has been reimagined as an action-Western epic. In actuality, the Lord of the Rings prequel following Frodo's uncle Bilbo Baggins was an epic fantasy just like the films before it, all of which were directed by Peter Jackson. Jackson returned to the J.R.R. Tolkien franchise in the early 2000s, splitting the original 1937 novel into three parts that were released as 2012's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, 2013's The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, and 2014's The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies.
