The final full-length trailer for the The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies has just been released and it’s epic! There’s fire and brimstone, there’s death and destruction and there’s some pretty intense war sequences, plus Benedict Cumberbatch’s dragon still hasn’t been slayed… The final chapter of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy is just weeks away and this last trailer gives us a really good look at the film. Prepare for the defining moment of the Middle Earth legend…
(To watch this trailer in Creation 5, just tap here.)
In the trailer we see lots of new characters, in fact, it looks like virtually every character from the last two Hobbit films, plus plenty of the Lord of The Rings characters make an appearance in the final episode. All of these characters will come together for an epic 45-minute battle scene. It looks like Middle Earth is going to war, again.
The Battle of the Five Armies will see Smaug’s wrath explode upon the poor inhabitants of Lake-town, while the evil wizard, Sauron, who has returned to Middle-Earth, sends an army of Orcs and Wargs to attack the Lonely Mountain.
During a recent interview with USA today Peter Jackson commented: “The fate of Middle-earth is not really going to swing one way or the other [in this film]. But there’s a lot of characters we’ve introduced, and some of them we like and some of them who we feel empathy for are going to behave badly because they’re confronted with the ultimate test, which is massive wealth. And it brings out the worst in people.”
So, after 15 years and five previous films, Peter Jackson will say goodbye to J.R.R. Tolkien‘s world. We can’t wait for December 12 when the film hits cinema’s everywhere!
