But there are snippets about the final film:
"For out in December, of course, is the final part of The Hobbit, with Freeman again shouldering the immense action and spectacle as diminutive hero Bilbo Baggins. At the time of writing, there is speculation that the third installment could change its title from There And Back Again to Into The Fire, with the new moniker registered by parent company New Line. But whatever the title, Freeman’s confident the film will deliver, and he’s here to assure any fans worrying that Tolkien’s slim volume won’t spread over a third movie.
“We obviously all signed up for two films [Freeman was officially announced as Bilbo in October 2010], but I tend to trust Pete’s decision, because he’s the man in charge and he’s done it before and he knows the world better than anybody does,” he says. “We still have the Battle of the Five Armies, the death of Smaug…” He pauses, laughs. “Yes, Smaug gets it! That’s not giving too much away – I’m glad it’s an old book!”
As to the details, he can’t say too much. And we’re not even talking confidentiality agreements here, just pragmatics. “You have to understand,” he explains, “I know very little about the Battle of Five Armies because there weren’t really 53,000 people doing it, and it’s no secret that a lot of this stuff is fantastic use of CGI. I mean, Bilbo has had his journey, literally, all through the battle bit, and through the seeing off of Smaug, but lots of stuff goes on that I, as Martin, have no idea of. But I do know it’ll be good because Pete’s one of the best choreographers of war I’ve ever seen. What I love about him is there’s always human cost. It’s not just gung-ho slicing of swords; he always cuts to someone terrified.”

Fan of both books and movies. Oh, and it seems I have severely misnamed myself... for the moment.
