You would think after some 42 movies [fact check needed], Peter Jackson would’ve well and truly exhausted Tolkien’s Middle Earth canon. In thinking that, you would be gravely mistaken.
Here’s the final – maybe? – trailer for The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies, shot in that sweeping, awe-inducing fashion that you’ve come to expect from Weta battle scenes and starring Ian McKellen as Gandalf the Grey, Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins, and Richard Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield.
The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies also stars Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace, Luke Evans, Benedict Cumberbatch, Ken Stott and James Nesbitt, with Cate Blanchett, Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, and Orlando Bloom alongside a litany of other incredible actors and will be released in Australian cinemas on Boxing Day.
