Martin Freeman’s Last Shot as Bilbo Baggins

After Gandalf and Legolas, Peter Jackson showed us the last moment on set of the protagonist of Tolkien’s first story: Bilbo Baggins played by Martin Freeman.

Another touching moment.

“Tonight Martin Freeman finished his last shot as Bilbo Baggins. The end of an incredible two and a half years. I cannot imagine anyone else in this role – a character that Martin has nurtured and crafted with love and great skill. 

We have said goodbye to our elves, humans, wizards and now the hobbit. We now enter our final 2 weeks of pick-ups, and it’s wall to wall dwarves. These pick-ups have been gruelling and intense, but I’m so happy with what we’ve been shooting. These next two movies are going to be pretty great!”
