While most of the reviews coming out about The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug have been fantastic, some fans found the story line changes hard to swallow. But no matter how many varying reviews I have read or heard about, there’s one thing everyone agrees on: Smaug’s voice and design are second to none.
Having voiced the Necromancer and Smaug, Benedict Cumberbatch sat down with Middle-earth News to talk about his experiences while filming, the animals used to influenced Smaug’s movement and sounds, and what steps Jackson and crew took to create the Necromancer’s presence.
Definitely watch until the every end, as Benedict left us with a little something that goes to show just how fun he is to be around. Thanks, BC!
