It has been released that David Bowie was considered for the role of Gandalf the Wise in Peter Jackson?s ?Lord of the Ring? franchise series. Amy Hubbard, the casting director for the films, stated, ?He was unavailable. It was a very quick conversation with the legendary Chris Andrews at CAA. I do that [ David Bowie] went over and played for everybody at the Millennium party. That wouldn?t been New Year?s Eve in the year 1999., which was when the films were being shot. He went over and entertained everybody, but he never auditioned. That?s for sure.?
