Andy Serkis is going there and back again, and there again, and back again.<br />To help those struggling during coronavirus isolation, Serkis, aka Gollum himself, has embarked on an unexpected 12-hour journey to read “The Hobbit,” live, cover to cover.<br /><br />Donations raised during the “Hobbitathon” (as Serkis calls it) will benefit U.K. charities Best Beginnings and NHS Charities Together, two organizations helping those in need during the pandemic.<br /><br />Serkis’ effort kicked off Friday at 5 a.m. By the time you read this, he’s already been at it for hours. You can watch live and also donate through Serkis’ GoFundMe page.
