The Hobbit director Peter Jackson has confirmed that the movie series will have no presence at this year's Comic-Con.
In a video blog to fans, Jackson said that the cast and crew are too busy working on pickups to appear at a panel or even produce a sizzle reel for the convention in two weeks' time.
The second film in the trilogy, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is due for release on December 13.
