Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug fan event

Live streaming of Q&A with cast and director

by Amber Wilkinson

Ahead of the December 13, 2013, release of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, fans got a chance to see new cast members, including Orlando Bloom, Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace and Luke Evans, as part of the global fan celebration on November 4, at 10pm UK, and simultaneous times around the world.

At each of the satellite-linked cinemas in four host cities - Los Angeles, New York, London and Wellington - Jackson and members of his cast and filmmaking team gathered with fans to show exclusive footage from the New Line and MGM production and answer questions in front of a live audience, as well as offer a few surprises.

Watch a recording of the event below.
