*UPDATE* 'The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug' Reveals New Banners Today, Trailer Tomorrow
*UPDATE* Warner Bros. has revealed a couple more banners, one featuring Luke Evans as Bard the Bowman, the other of Lee Pace as Thranduil.*
Warner Bros. has released a new banner for Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, with the promise that trailer will debut online tomorrow, bright and early at 9am eastern. The image appears to be of Bilbo (Martin Freeman) and his dwarf companions cutting their way through the sticky webs of the Mirkwood spiders, a sequence which should look amazing on the big screen.
Starring Richard Armitage, Ian McKellen, Benedict Cumberbatch, Orlando Bloom, Evangeline Lilly, Luke Evans, Lee Pace, and more, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug arrives on December 13th.
PLOT: The second in a trilogy of films adapting the enduringly popular masterpiece The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug continues the adventure of the title character Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) as he journeys with the Wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen) and thirteen Dwarves, led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) on an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor.
