This pandemic has given everyone a lot of time to do things that nobody should ever really have time to do, like jigsaw puzzles, which is why we’re seeing so many famous people reuniting with the other famous people they were in movies with a few years ago. You think Steve Zahn can just call up Ethan Embry for fun? No, not with all of the stress and pressures of life as a celebrity. Anyway, the latest famous person who is doing something fun that they would otherwise not have any time to do is Andy Serkis, who announced on Twitter that he’s going to stream himself reading through all of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit for charity starting tomorrow morning and going for… somewhere around 12 hours.
