Filming On The Hobbit Has Resumed

Posted by on May 15, 2013 at 4:32 am

bilbo marqueeNews is coming in that the additional filming for The Hobbit has begun.

The French site Tolkiendrim says an insider told them that filming would start in Stone Street Studios on 15 May and continue until late July.

In addition, the Spanish site Elanillounico reports that it has heard from a reliable source that the casting call we reported last week, was for characters from Bree as well as for The Battle of Five Armies. I wonder what they’re filming in Bree?  A flashback , a foreshadowing of The Lord of the Rings or a future encounter with Aragorn? We can have some fun speculating about that whilst waiting for more news from Wellington.

And finally, it seems, the dwarves are assembling. Last night Graham McTavish (Dwalin) tweeted that his filming would resume next week.

It seems all systems are go!
