Last night Berlin was the host city for the European Premiere of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, and the Germans really showed the world how such an event should be done. From the incredible Smaug décor on the red carpet, to the excellent hosts for the livestream, to the care and attention shown to the fans lining the enormous carpet, the event was fun and exciting. Many of the cast were in attendance, and all looked to be having a great time.

While watching the live stream of the Berlin premiere, which is still running right now at Berlin Premiere Live Stream Luke Evans confirmed that he played Bard’s own ancestor, Girion of Dale. He only had to spend one day in costume, but as you can see from this image, that costume was very elaborate and heavy, similar to what the dwarves had to wear all the time. Luke said he was glad he only had to put on this heavy costume just the one day, but really loved playing his ancestor to bring that history to life.

During our exclusive red-carpet interview with Martin Freeman, Benedict Cumberbatch sneakily snuck up and shared a pinch and a bird with his Hobbit co-star. Animated gifs have turned up everywhere on tumblr, and even Gawker’s Jezebel says this is the greatest thing to come out of it all.
