The end of an epic saga deserves an epic send-off, and the new trailer for The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies does not skimp on the big moments. With Smaug razingLake-town and Sauron returning to Middle-Earth, everyone from Bilbo Baggins, Thorin Oakenshield and the Dwarves of Erebor to Gandalf have their work seriously cut out for them.
Though the trailer carries a heavy, foreboding tone, its packed with snippets teasing all the action to come: Armies assembling and unleashing a torrent of arrows, cities burning to a crisp, Dwarves squaring off with axe-wielding Orcs, Gandalf delivering inspirational one-liners (You have but one question to ask yourselves: How shall this day end?!), and Bilbo dramatically putting on thering. There are also bats that, as Legolas explains, are bred for one thing only: War.
The final installment in Peter Jacksons Middle-Earth saga opens in theaters on December 17th. The director and members of the cast teased The Battle of Five Armies at Comic-Con in Julyduring a panel moderated by Lord of the Rings superfan, Stephen Colbert (who came dressed as the Lake-town Spy, his memorable, landmark cameo from The Desolation of Smaug).
While Colbert stole the show with a hilarious, heartwarming speech about his relationship with J.R.R. Tolkeins books and Jacksons film adaptations, the director and cast were able to tease the film a bit without giving too much away. I lose my shit Elven shit, Cate Blanchett said when asked if Galadriel would finally see some battlefield action. Jackson added, She gets to kick Saurons ass a little in this next film.
