Warner Bros. will release its first new 'Lord of the Rings' movie in 2026. Andy Serkis will direct 'The Hunt for Gollum,' while Peter Jackson produces.

Peter Jackson to produce and "by involved every step of the way", Andy Serkis to direct. I like Serkis but the last movie he directed was Venom 2 and it was not good (it wasn't even the best Venom!)
The project is currently in the early stages of script development from writers Walsh and Boyens, along with Phoebe Gittins and Arty Papageorgiou, and will “explore storylines yet to be told,” Zaslav said.
So it's only in early stages of development but they've already decided it's definitely coming out in 2026. Hmm, rushing production of a Middle Earth movie series produced by Peter Jackson, that could never possibly go wrong!
(Maybe it'll be good who knows.)
