New Hobbit Scroll Poster Online
With a first look at Beorn

10 July 2012  |  Written by James White  


The Hobbit Scrolling Poster

Are you the sort of Peter Jackson fan who loves nothing more than to pore over every minute detail of imagery from his adventures in Middle-earth? Then today is your lucky day! For Team Hobbit has put out a giant, scrollable poster featuring several art scenes from the movie.

While we've seen a lot of these people before, one of the segments is exciting, as it features a character not yet seen in the trailers or other imagery. That would be Ian McKellen's Gandalf with the shape-shifter Beorn, who takes the form of a bear.

As for the rest, it’s mostly what you’d expect: lots of Martin Freeman getting into scrapes as Bilbo Baggins, the dwarves at various stages of their quest and, because it wouldn’t be Middle-Earth without them, Galadriel (Cate Blanchett), Elrond (Hugo Weaving) and everyone’s favourite troublemaker, Gollum (Andy Serkis).

Jackson and some of his team will be presenting the movie at Comic-Con, where it faces its toughest ordeal yet from the franchise’s fans. Naturally Empire will be there to bring you all the happenings…

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey will be out on December 14. The Hobbit: There And Back Again follows on December 13 next year.
