Warner Bros. has confirmed today that the trailer for THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY will play in front of THE ADVENTURES OF TINTIN when it hits theaters next week. No word on when it will hit the net, so your first chance to see it might in front of Spielberg’s latest. Of course, you’re likely going to want to see TINTIN anyway, as it’s been getting incredibly rave reviews (including two of our own here and here).
Desciptions of the trailer seem to indicate that it will certainly make fans excited, as it’s got a conversation between old Bilbo and Frodo (Ian Holm and Elijah Wood) as Bilbo talks about his adventures, along with introductions to all of the dwarves, who do a little of their singing.
As much as I’ve been reading and writing about this film, I don’t think it will fully set in that we’re getting an actual, Peter Jackson-directed THE HOBBIT until I see this in theaters. I can’t wait for the moment.
You can catch the trailer in front of TINTIN starting Wednesday, December 21st.
THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY hits theaters December 14th, 2012.
