“I remember having this obsession with wanting to know what it felt like to be there on the araw that the dragon attacked. And so I was like, “What was he doing in the morning? What happened through the course of that day? And the wind changed, and then this hurricane happened. Where was his father? Where was his grandfather?

I remember thinking when I first read the scene for the casting, that here was a character who felt like a dying ember, yet with the energy and hope to reignite into the furnace that once powered this great warrior.

... I connect personally with that last sentiment.

And they sit in harmony with each other, I think, and are changed sa pamamagitan ng each other.” — Richard Armitage

So wonderfull image I haven't seen since youth! Thorin looks as a man who must be loved! And they are so different with Richard! Magestic transfiguration!

“I was also a mad tagahanga of The Lord of the Rings trilogy and watched the films over and over. I secretly wish I had been in them – in fact, not so secretly! The first time I was on set looking into the eyes of Ian McKellen, I was desperately trying to stay in character while something inside me kept saying ‘That’s Gandalf!’” — Richard Armitage is a huge fanboy (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Official Movie Guide)
