Peter Jackson Unveils Another Hobbit Photo of His Company of Dwarves
Unofficial Hobbit Dwarf Week continues! Yesterday, Peter Jackson gave us our first glimpse of brothers Dori, Nori and Ori (played by Mark Hadlow, Jed Brophy and Adam Brown), and today we're treated to a photo of the other set of brothers in his Company of Dwarves, Óin and Glóin (played by John Callen and Peter Hambleton). If you weren't scared off by me declaring it Hobbit Dwarf Week, you're brave enough to click through.
Here's a description of the characters via Yahoo!:
Distant cousins of Thorin Oakenshield, these two doughty Northern Dwarves join the Company out of a sense of loyalty to their kin, and also because they have a substantial sum of money invested in the venture. Along with Bombur, Gloin is the only other married Dwarf in the Company (there being a shortage of female dwarves in general). His wife is an acclaimed beauty with a particularly fine beard. Gloin is the proud father of a young son, Gimli, who will go on to become part of the famous Fellowship of the Ring.
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey hits theaters Dec. 14, 2012. The second installment in Jackson's two-part Hobbit series There and Back Again will premiere Dec. 13, 2013.

Everything about this is looking goooood. And for the record, I'd love to see a lovely Dwarf Wife and her magnificent beard.
