In this three-minute clip from the Hall H presentation that’s made it’s way onto Youtube, Andy Serkis expresses his gratitude at being asked to be Second Unit Director for the Hobbit before giving fans a taste of his Gollum voice at San Diego Comic Con 2012.

Update: Looks like WB/Wellywood had it removed! Sorry about that folks!
