I love they holding each other’s hands :)
“I do remember sitting down with ‘Lord of the Rings’ for weeks, and weeks, and weeks, and just reading it. I started with ‘The Hobbit.’”
Richard Armitage on The Hobbit
“Dwalin is the sort of the tough warrior, Thorin’s trusted right-hand man, his lieutenant who would follow Thorin to the gates of hell and pretty much does, I guess.”
Graham McTavish on Dwalin
“He’s a rockstar.”
Orlando Bloom on Andy Serkis
“I call them a grump of dwarves, but they’re not grumpy at all. They’re so into it and high-spirited, and funny.”
Ian McKellen on the Dwarves
“My dad read the book to me and it was a bedtime treat if I had done well, if I had been a good boy, I’d get two chapters as opposed to maybe one, or none if I had been really bad. It became the first literary experience that played out as a visual fantasy or film in my head and really drew me into reading. That particular world, it was so clear in my mind what that film was to me as a kid.”
Benedict Cumberbatch on The Hobbit [x]

“I do feel incredibly liberated when I’m inside another’s skin.”
Andy Serkis
“Balin and Dwalin were written as Thorin’s closest confidantes, Balin as the Old Warrior advisor and father figure, Dwalin as an equal in all but name, his friend, his advisor, and his sparring partner. Thorin has a relationship with every one of his men, but thoese two and his sister’s sons, Fili and Kili, are particularly close.”
