Peter Jackson's Controversial Return of the King Book Cut Could Lead To A Great LOTR Sequel Movie

The Lord of the Rings has been subject to a number of controversies in the fandom, not the least of these being Saruman's death being cut, but this actually opens up an exciting prospect for another movie. Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings movies cut a lot of J.R.R. Tolkien's story to fit it into three feature-length pictures, but fans weren't expecting Saruman's death to be one of the elements cut. It was vital to the character's arc, and Christopher Lee's stellar performance made it even more exciting to see Saruman's death on-screen.
