Willie Nelson The Hobbit

Conan O'Brien has released a parody video showing Willie Nelson auditioning for The Hobbit 2. The video has quickly gone viral, attracting attention from some of The Hobbit actors themselves. In the video, Willie Nelson makes a pitch for playing playing Gandalf in the The Hobbit 2. Near the end of the video, Willie Nelson announces, "So that's it Peter, you can hire me and fire that Ian McKellen guy. He's a good actor, but hell, I"m Willie Nelson." Ian McKellen responded via Twitter, writing, "Dear Willie, You are far too young to play Gandy.But nice try; have a stoner of a birthday. Love and admiration. Ian." Of course, Gandalf isn't the only role that Willie Nelson has his eyes set on. At the very end of the video, he adds, "Now that I think about it, I would also be a great Magneto."
