Thanks Mr Underhill for that sorry link. It seems that this quarrel is pulling in other actors from the cast. There was one additional quote from New Line honcho Shaye implying this in another article:
Quote:
Shaye said that many of the Rings trilogy actors "suddenly, because, I'm guessing, of Peter's complaint," have declined to participate in celebrating New Line's 40th anniversary. "I'm incredibly offended," he said.

PJ responded in Variety by saying it was "regrettable" Mr Shaye had made the issue personal and added this comment:
Quote:
Jackson also disputed suggestions by Shaye that Rings cast members had declined to take part in New Line's 40th anniversary. "In light of these circumstances, I didn't think it was appropriate for me to be involved in [an anniversary video]," Jackson said. "I have never discussed this video with any of the cast of the LOTR. The issues that Bob Shaye has with the cast pre-date this lawsuit by many years."
