The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug cast members Orlando Bloom, Evangeline Lilly, Lee Pace, Richard Armitage, Andy Serkis, and Luke Evans will be taking part in a global fan celebration today at 5pm ET/2pm PT. The live Q&A will also include director Peter Jackson and will debut new footage from the upcoming second film of The Hobbit series.
 
The Details:
 
“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 will gather with fans to show exclusive footage from The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug and answer questions in front of a live audience, as well as offer a few surprises.”
 
Anderson Cooper hosts the event, and along with Armitage and Bloom he’ll be live from New York. Evangeline Lilly (‘Tauriel’) will be taking part in Los Angeles while Lee Pace (‘ElF King Thranduil’), Luke Evans (‘Bard the Bowman’), and Andy Serkis (‘Gollum’) will join the event from London. Peter Jackson will be set up in Wellington, New Zealand to answer questions.
 
For those who can’t make it to one of the host cities, you can catch the event live online (although Warner Bros says the footage shown will be an edited version).
 
The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug stars Ian McKellen as Gandalf the Grey, Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins, and Armitage as Thorin Oakenshield. The cast also includes Benedict Cumberbatch, Ken Stott, James Nesbitt, John Bell, Manu Bennett, Jed Brophy, Adam Brown, John Callen, Ryan Gage, Mark Hadlow, Peter Hambleton, Stephen Hunter, William Kircher, Lawrence Makoare, Sylvester McCoy, Graham McTavish, Dean O’Gorman, Mikael Persbrandt, and Aidan Turner.
