Willie Nelson auditions for the role of Gandalf in Hobbit 2

“You shall not pass…an unlit joint, man.”

Tomorrow is Willie Nelson’s 80th birthday, and here’s a nice audition reel of the American icon as Gandalf for the upcoming Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Since Gandalf already likes to smoke weed, this already seems like a perfect match. Nelson’s son, Micah Nelson, also makes an appearance as Bilbo Baggins.
