Familiarise yourself with the dwarves

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has released a bumper selection of character posters, fifteen in total, giving each member of the primary cast their moment in the sun.

Don’t know you Oin from your Gloin? Your Bifur from your Bofur? Well now’s your chance to brush up, as each of the company of dwarves has been given his own poster.

As well as the pint-sized warriors, there’s also one of Bilbo (naturally), and wise old Gandalf. Even Gollum was wriggled and writhed his way onto his own one-sheet.

Directed by Peter Jackson and co-starring Martin Freeman, Ian McKellen and Andy Serkis, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey opens in the UK on 14 December 2012.

In the meantime you can browse through the full range of posters, below…
