Now we are getting to the good stuff. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug’s new trailer is here and if you were hoping the second film would stick closer to the book then you are going to be disappointed, but for fans who have not read the book (really, it has been out 76 years, come on) and fans (like me) that don’t mind creative liberties this looks like a whole lot of fun.
We get a few highlights including Legolas back in action and a love affair story with Evangeline Lilly’s Tauriel, Luke Evans as Bard the Bowman and the big daddy at then end is hearing Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug, which he absolutely owns.
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug releases on December 13th.
