When Peter Jackson announced that he wouldn’t attend Comic Con, which we now know to be false, he decided to provide the following video diary instead with the note “So please enjoy this—at least you don’t have to travel to San Deigo to see it!”
It confirms the recent rumors that some elements of the production moved to England to film the necessary parts of two elderly actors who have a bit of trouble traveling to New Zealand. And whom are those actors? One is Ian Holm reprising his role as an older Bilbo Baggins, and the other? You’ll catch a glimpse of him in the final seconds of the video!
And if anyone had any doubts about how the dwarves look, most of the video consists of the dwarves in costume and the actors talking about their roles. They look fantastic in motion and seem to interact hilariously. In a cool moment, a very special visit from an actor who was in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy stops by to give Thorin and Company some dwarvish advice. Very unexpected and very cool!
