Par Gillossen, le mardi 2 novembre 2010 à 07:02:32
Le premier était annoncé comme possible membre de l'aventure depuis une quinzaine de jours...
Et nous tenons donc deux Nains de plus ! Nesbitt incarnera Bofur, un Nain direct avant tout défini par son côté comique mais qui se montrer courageux à l'occasion. En espérant tout de même qu'il n'y ait personne pour le lancer... Bien entendu, Peter Jackson se déclare très chanceux de pouvoir compter sur un acteur comme lui pour un tel projet. Adam Brown, un nouveau venu (photo ci-contre), incarnera quant à lui Ori. Jackson le présente comme possédant une présence unique
à l'écran.
Et pendant ce temps-là, la pré-production se poursuit !
British actor James Nesbitt (Millions and TV's "Cold Feet") has joined the ensemble cast of The Hobbit, it was jointly announced today by Toby Emmerich, President and Chief Operating Officer, New Line Cinema; Alan Horn, President and Chief Operating Officer, Warner Bros.; and Steve Cooper, co-Chief Executive Officer of MGM.
Nesbitt will play Bofur, a disarmingly forthright, funny and occasionally brave Dwarf. "James's charm, warmth and wit are legendary as is his range as an actor in both comedic and dramatic roles. We feel very lucky to be able to welcome him as one of our cast." said director Peter Jackson.
Newcomer Adam Brown will play Ori, another of the Dwarf Company which sets out to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from the infamous dragon, Smaug. Jackson comments, "Adam is a wonderfully expressive actor and has a unique screen presence. I look forward to seeing him bring Ori to life."
Nesbitt and Brown will join the cast announced on October 21, which includes Martin Freeman, Richard Armitage (soon to appear in Captain America: The First Avenger), Aidan Turner (TV's "Being Human"), Rob Kazinsky (TVs "EastEnders"), Graham McTavish (Secretariat), John Callen (TV's "Power Rangers Jungle Fury"), Stephen Hunter (TV's "All Saints"), Mark Hadlow (King Kong) and Peter Hambleton (TV's "The Strip").
Since The Hobbit films received a green light on October 15, pre-production has been in full swing with release dates set for December, 2012 and December, 2013. The two The Hobbit films are being co-produced by New Line Cinema and MGM, with New Line managing production, Warner Bros Pictures handling domestic distribution and MGM distributing internationally.
Peter Jackson, Fran Walsh and Carolynne Cunningham are producing the films, with co-writer Philippa Boyens serving as co-producer and Ken Kamins as executive producer. The Oscar-winning, critically acclaimed "LOTR" trilogy, also from the production team of Jackson, Walsh and Cunningham, grossed nearly $3 billion worldwide at the box office. In 2003, "Return of the King swept the Academy Awards, winning all of the 11 categories in which it was nominated, including Best Picture – the first ever Best Picture win for a fantasy film. The trilogy’'s production was also unprecedented at the time.
