The Hobbit script is being Written

This from theonering.net:

“Ive just got home from an early screening of Hellboy II The Golden Army hosted by PopcornTaxi at the Greater Union Cinema in Sydney, where Guillermo did a telephone Q & A from Berlin after the film…The last question though related to the Hobbit - and Guillermo said that although there was nothing to add at the moment - he can say that scripting has started - and he described the process as something ‘beautiful.‘”

Excellent news. I can't wait to see del Toro's take on Middle Earth, Smaug, Beorn, the spiders and many other great things. Who should play Bilbo? Who should voice Smaug?
