Benedict Cumberbatch - MTV interview - Smaug in The Hobbit

[ohBuckle]

I wonder what Martin thinks of Benedict calling him an invisible midget. XD

[OKaysional]

"I'm going to be on my belly, it's going to take a bit of practise" *smirks*

He's been doing other things on his belly... sherlockXwatson *eyebrow raise*

I joke, I joke XD

They could have had John Hart to the voice of the dragon.

LOL, I can see how Gollum/Smeagol worked with Andy actually acting and then getting digitally replaced...but i cant seem to wrap my head around the idea of doing the same with Smaug. I just get this silly image of Benedict in a silly dragon outfit. Hahahaha I guess we'll have to wait a little over a year and a half to see!

[ViolettsChief]

he plays the dragon like andy serkis did with gollum, and he has also another role too in the movie - he is the necromant ;-)

[SWEmanque]

Wait a second, is he just voiceacting or does he acctually paly the damn dragon?

[jesustonight]

very carefully

[4everYGOTAS]

I would like but it has 69 likes right now... don't wanna mess with that.

[XxmrsmaevexX]

I screamed with laughter when he said "midget"!! Hahahahahah..... :D

[olga4tw]

he is so sexy! his voice is like melted butter! 

[CorellianSmuggler]

I don't remember Smaug ever talking in the book. Am I right in this, or have I just forgotten?

[SporkingToast]

@CorellianSmuggler

You've just forgotten. Long time, mm?

[CorellianSmuggler]

@SporkingToast About ten years. Is it when Bilbo sneaks in, wearing the ring?

[SporkingToast]

@CorellianSmuggler That's the one. Bilbo sneaks in the second time, encounters one-eye-sleeping Smaug, flatters the dragon, and identifies himself as Barrel-rider, Ring-bearer, Luck-winner... hope this might have sounded a bit familiar.

[ViolettsChief]

@CorellianSmuggler he did talk, he mostly screamed with anger ;-)

[JoseWanKenobi]

MANY GREAT Thanks for uploading! The MTV assholes have made all these videos unavailable here. Keep 'em coming.

[farrog]

He said 'ilk' ....I love that word!!

[alefuenza]

His voice made my ovaries explode.

[Gordiana]

Is this wrong to tell I love his voice? In fact I love everything about him.

Thanks for uploading! The more Benedict, the better!

[WarHorse1119]

How do you audition for a dragon?!

[lucy0794]
