Benedict Cumberbatch on The Necromancer
|
Can't Post
|
|
Seems we can finally confirm that he will be both giving him his voice AND Mo-capping him. Yesterday he had an interview at The 2012 Cheltenham Literature Festival about Sherlock and he talked briefly about several other works including The Hobbit. According to Sherlockology's (main Sherlock fan website) report this is what he said: "- First news that Benedict has performed motion capture for The Necromancer in The Hobbit trilogy - previously it was only stated that he was voicing the character. This emerged from an expression of his frustration that most media outlets report that he is only providing the voice for Smaug the dragon in the films, whereas he will actually portray the entire physical onscreen performance for the gigantic creature through motion capture, which he performed during an intense couple of days of work in New Zealand earlier in the year."

"There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something."

Perhaps they re-learned you can't separate the body and the voice?

I thought it was common knowledge he was mo-capping Smaug?

It is among us, but media only mentions the voice acting part.

Dinosaurs (subset of) Reptiles

That's because the classification system is seriously out of date.

That's correct, Dinosaurs are now largely considered to be neither reptiles nor birds, but their own specific clade inbetween. //

If they're bringing Bret McKenzie back, I don't see why they wouldn't bring Bruce Spence back...?
