New Images from The Hobbit Films

So here we have a whole new spate of new images from The Hobbit app that Warner Bros released. Now I wish they would do this for android phones as well – I am not even going to ask for something for my Blackberry because I know that is not going to happen. But who knows? We are after all, talking about a realm where dragons fly. 🙂 But apart from my meagre cribbing, let me get down directly to sharing the goodies that I gathered.

The quintessential wizard

First look at the Dwarves: Dori, Nori, Ori

And here we have Dori, Nori and Ori. 🙂

Dori, Nori & Ori

 

Nori (Little Scrap)

Jed Brophy as Nori

Dwarf of Thorin & Company. Nori was of the line of Durin and was a remote kinsman of Thorin Oakenshield. His hood was purple and he played the flute. Nori was fond of regular and plentiful meals.

In 2941 of the Third Age, Nori was selected to accompany Thorin on the quest to reclaim the Lonely Mountain from Smaug the Dragon. When the company was forced to climb trees to avoid a pack of Wargs, Nori pointed out to Dori that Bilbo had been left behind.

Nori survived the Battle of the Five Armies and settled at the Lonely Mountain. He was still alive at the time of the War of the Ring. His date of death is not known.

Jed Brophy as Nori

Brophy has probably the most experience working with Peter Jackson compared to anyone else on the cast list. A well-established actor from New Zealand who is also an extremely capable horse rider, Brophy started his professional acting career playing the character of Dr. Jack Galloway on soap Shortland Street before appearing in Peter Jackson’s comedy-horror Braindead. Shortly after Brophy was featured in another Peter Jackson film, which was the critically-acclaimed Heavenly Creatures.

Seven years later, he appeared once again as several parts in The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers and The Return of the King. Jed Brophy is currently working on adapting a screenplay based on a book and spending time with his two children and the Rohan horse he purchased after riding it in The Return of the King.
