\"Beorn It’s one of the things that we’ve been waiting for and waiting for — the opportunity to see what Peter Jackson’s Beorn looks like in human form. From the front.<\/p>\n

For some this will be a huge SPOILER<\/font>. So run away now if you’re avoiding them!<\/p>\n

But thanks to our friends at hobbitfilm.it<\/a>, we can finally show you what Beorn the shapeshifter looks like face-on. It seems that the image comes from the movie tie-in book The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug – Annual 2014<\/a>\"\". <\/p>\n

Note the axe that he’s holding in his right hand, too. When the now slightly infamous calendar shot of Beorn<\/a> from behind found it’s way onto the internet, some wondered why Beorn’s left arm was at an odd angle. It seems likely that he’s holding that massive axe.<\/p>\n

So what do you think? Do you like the forked beard look? Does the front-view allay the fears that many expressed when the low-resolution calendar image leaked? Let us now your thoughts in the comments below!<\/p>\n

Introducing Beorn!<\/h4>\n

TheOneRing.net can confirm that this the real deal. We have been able to obtain from NZ photographer Tim Clayton<\/a> a license to reproduce a high-resolution copy of one of the photos he took at the Paradise set from outside the exclusion zone while filming was taking place back in 2011. As the crop — see below — of this photo reveals, there is a be-whiskered Mikael Persbrandt standing beside Peter Jackson, waiting for the crew to finish preparations.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/b> The Production has asked us if we could remove our exclusive spy image for now. But rest assured, it really is Beorn above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
