A huge new banner poster for The Hobbit has been released, Digital Spy said.

Following on from last week's dwarves poster, the new image shows all 13 dwarves lined up along with Martin Freeman's Bilbo Baggins and Ian McKellen's Gandalf.

Peter Jackson's upcoming trilogy stars Freeman and McKellen alongside Richard Armitage, Benedict Cumberbatch, Evangeline Lilly and returning Lord of the Rings cast members including Elijah Wood, Hugo Weaving and Cate Blanchett.

Blanchett recently discussed her return, describing the role of Galadriel as "very special... mythic and fascinating".
