Bronson Steele (double for Stephen Hunter - Bombur)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Message board member Carne recently did some brilliant research on the stunt performers who will be filling in for some of the actors playing the dwarves in “The Hobbit.” Per Carne: “These people are too often overlooked, so I thought: “Why not?” I also thought it might be fun to see which stunt performers most physically resemble the actors they’ll be filling in for.” Right you are, Carne! Take a look at these pictures Carne put together and let us know your thoughts on our Hobbit forum<\/a> or Barliman’s Chat<\/a>! Also, please let us know if you know of (or personally are) a stunt double so we can add to the list! …More<\/strong><\/p>\n
