For years, rumors of an "extended-extended edition" of the Lord of the Rings trilogy circulated among fans, but Peter Jackson has clarified that no significant unused scenes exist to justify such a release. He stated that any additional footage would be minimal and likely disappointing. However, Jackson expressed interest in creating a comprehensive making-of documentary for the trilogy. Meanwhile, new projects like The Rings of Power Season 3 and The Hunt for Gollum keep the Middle-earth saga alive.
