He could easily play Bilbo. As far as David Tennant is concerned, he is a FANTASTIC actor, though I don't picture him as Bilbo, I am sure he could carry it off and do it smashingly! I'm not sure about John Simm...he is wonderful though! Colm Meaney would be a great hobbit! He could easily play Bilbo.

Problem is that they will have to cast someone who little girls will have crushes on, like Elijah Wood, in order to attract te fans - particularly as there willl be a dearth of elves and men!
