Once again, we’ve landed upon some new pictures from the upcoming “Hobbit” film. This time around, here’s our first look at Ken Stott as Balin and Graham McTavish as Dwalin in Peter Jackson’s “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey”.

Here’s the two character descriptions:

Dwarf Lords in their own right, Balin and Dwalin are close relatives of Thorin. Beyond this, these brothers are two of his most loyal and trusted friends. An old warrior, Balin has lived through hard times and fought many battles, yet he harbors doubts about the wisdom of the Quest to retake the Lonely Mountain. Dwalin has no such forebodings – his belief in Thorin’s leadership is unshakeable. A powerful and bruising fighter, with a natural tendency to distrust anyone who is not a Dwarf, particularly anyone who might be an Elf, Dwalin is not someone to cross lightly.

    I can’t wait. The more I see the more excited I get. Shame about Balin’s ultimate fate by the time of Fellowship of The Ring.
