Dean O'Gorman confirms that Fili stays with his brother:
Okay, well, we've talked briefly about-- He's the nephew to Thorin and then he will be the-- Potentially, he's like a young prince. He's the elder brother of Kili, so he feels very responsible for him, and is very protective over his younger brother because they are both warriors, but to a certain extent, they’re both naïve, too, because they haven't really been to war. Yeah, maybe they chopped a couple of orcs up or something but they haven't been to war and witnessed what someone like Balin has. So, in the second film, they all are sort of naughty towards each other, with each other-- That's hard, eh? But I guess because Kili, because of the wound that he receives in the first film, he's seen as not being fit to go on with the journey, and of course my loyalty ultimately lies with Kili, so we decide to stick with each other and give up potentially--

Adam Brown dropped a massive book spoiler at the end of that interview 
"When you think of the great Battle of Pelennor, do not forget the Battle of Dale. Think of what might have been. Dragon-fire and savage swords in Eriador! There might be no Queen in Gondor. We might now only hope to return from the victory here to ruin and ash. But that has been averted -- because I met Thorin Oakenshield one evening on the edge of spring not far from Bree. A chance-meeting, as we say in Middle-earth."

but some people only read 1 page a year, so they probably have not gotten around to the end yet. I'm half way through page 188, and I began in 1982.

I suppose it was a more fan-oriented interview anyway

Those that go out of their way to look up every new interview and piece of information are probably already familiar with the book or don't mind being spoiled. But there are indeed many who have never read The Hobbit (although they should  ) but do enjoy Middle-earth films. Certainly any major plot point must be considered spoiler material whether it be from the book or made up by the writers...especially when it does not come up until the last film.
*I don't mind it at all, just observing

"because of the wound that he receives in the first film" - huh?

Did I miss that? I don't remember Kili taking any significant wounds. Did it happen during "Into the Frying Pan", and we just don't see it until now? Are they going to be carrying Kili through Mirkwood in addition to, or instead of, Bombur? Because that would be silly.
"The Naugrim were ever, as they still remain, short and squat in stature; they were deep-breasted, strong in the arm, and stout in the leg, and their snouts were long. Indeed this strangeness they have that no Man nor Elf has ever seen a snoutless Dwarf - unless he were rhinoplasted in mockery, and would then be more like to die of shame than of many other hurts that to us would seem more deadly. For the Naugrim have snouts from the beginning of their lives, male and female alike..." (History of Middle Earth, volume 11, The War of the Truffles, p. 205)

He probably meant when the first film ended with the barrel escape, before three films were announced. He doesn't get injured before then (in either AUJ or DOS).

As DanielLB points these interviews (along with a huge amount of other of the DoS interviews that have been out over the past month) were conducted during filming in 2012 - before the split to three films existed, thus anything before before Lake-town is 'Film 1'.
