Via Ringer Marandhir: Luke Evans is interviewed about his personal style in British magazine GQ. He doesn’t really talk Bard the Bowman –- but he does mention going to Hobbit AUJ premiere.
Luke Evans is sat alone at Soho Beach House, pondering a purchase that would have made a lot more sense in modern day Miami than mid-Nineties Cardiff. “I remember spending over £100 on a pair of sunglasses, which was an extortionate amount of money to be spending in Wales in 1996.”
Richard Armitage (who you should all undoubtedly know by now as The Hobbit’s Thorin Oakenshield) will be answering your questions tomorrow on @TheHobbitMovie on twitter.
If you have a burning question that you’re desperate to ask, follow @TheHobbitMovie on twitter (https://twitter.com/TheHobbitMovie), and send in your question now using the hashtag #AskThorin.

The other figure is Yazneg who previously had only been released in Europe as an exclusive. Both figures will be priced at $14.99 and are due to arrive in the fall of 2013.
