The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies final trailer released Warner Bros. has released the final trailer for The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies, the final installment of Peter Jackson's epic, six-film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings Luke Evans as Bard and Orlando Bloom as Legolas in a scene from film THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES. THE main (and final) trailer for The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies has been released and it's an epic-send off to the end of the saga. Everyone from Bilbo Baggins to Thorin Oakenshield and the Dwarves of Erebor to Gandalf have their work seriously cut out for them in the trailer that has just about every Tolkien actor in it. "Pretty much every character from the last two Hobbit films, plus plenty of Lord of the Rings characters who never show up in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit (looking at you, Legolas), will make an appearance in The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies," reports Time magazine. Cate Blanchett as Galadriel and Sir Ian McKellen as Gandalf. Bilbo Baggins will return. They'll all come together for a 45-minute battle scene that's bound to get fans who yearned for the good old days of Return of the King after watching that endless barrel fighting scene in last year's The Desolation of Smaug excited. Bilbo will also be left to deal with Benedict Cumberbatch's dragon who is still causing havoc and is yet to be slayed. The final instalment in Peter Jackson's Middle-Earth saga opens in theatres in late December. From Academy Award-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson comes The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, the third in a trilogy of films adapting the enduringly popular masterpiece The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien. Courtesy Roadshow Films. Originally published as Final Hobbit trailer is epic send-off to saga
