Sir Peter Jackson made the announcement on his Facebook page on Friday. He said the name There and Back Again will be used for the box-set of the three movies.
The two earlier films were The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug.
In his Facebook post, Sir Peter said he was in the final stages of editing the film.
He was also working on an extended version of The Desolation of Smaug which will include 25 minutes of new scenes, he said.
