At least some are getting bonuses...I wonder if when the first LOTR movie did so well, that they may have renegotiated a bit with some of the actors for the following two to come, or at least for the final one, after they knew they would clean up, based on the first two? With a film like TH though; they are pretty much guaranteed close to a billion worldwide between the two movies, so they should be able to give a bit more up front I would hope...but I'm sure despite the near guaranteed success, they will do as you said above. Have you seen 'Love Actually'? That's when I first thought Martin Freeman really showed his depth, whereby he had to play a more serious role, while the irony of the scenes was anything but serious, yet he pulled it off perfectly and held ground with some of the top British actors...his performance fit right in, and I totally bought into the chemistry between him and his love interest... and then he ends with a kind of comedic jump for joy, which immediately reminded me of Bilbo. I think he has the depth to act the serious parts equally as well...
