The latest The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug trailer has been released!Take a sneak peek and find out who the king beneath the mountain truly is.
The first trailer for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was incredible enough, giving us our first look at Smaug the dragon, but the second trailer for the film took the action to a whole new level. We finally got to hear Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug. Now we see much more of Lake Town and a bit more of Bilbo with Smaug. Watch the new trailer below:
Earlier today, the first poster for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was released, featuring many of the characters – including Smaug lighting Gandalf’s pipe. Take a look at the new poster in HD.
In the most recent trailer we get new looks at Orlando Bloom as Legolas and the Elven guard of Mirkwood, Tauriel, played by Lost star Evangeline Lilly. The budding romance between the two is briefly on display. Bilbo was shown draped in messy webs in what will be the battle involving loads of spiders.

We also got a glimpse of Bilbo and the dwarves being washed down the river in barrels after escaping Mirkwood and some great looks at Lake Town. Perhaps the best part of the latest trailer were the new glimpses of Smaug (played by Benedict Cumberbatch) himself. We got to hear a couple of lines from the highly-anticipated character as he addresses Bilbo and sends an inescapable amount of fire his way.
This latest trailer is incredibly exciting and we can’t believe The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is just weeks away. Let us know what you think of the trailer below.
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug release date is set for December 13, 2013. It is the second film in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy based on the novels by revered author J.R.R. Tolkien.
The final movie in The Hobbit trilogy, There and Back Again, will hit theaters December 2014. Jackson had originally intended for The Hobbit to only be two films, but later decided last year during post-production that it would become a trilogy.
