The Battle of the Five Armies is the final chapter in The Hobbit film trilogy, directed by Peter Jackson. Picking up immediately after the events of The Desolation of Smaug, the story follows Bilbo Baggins and the company of dwarves as tensions escalate into an epic conflict over the Lonely Mountain’s treasure. With friendships tested, alliances forged, and war looming, the film delivers high-stakes action, emotional farewells, and a powerful conclusion to the prelude of The Lord of the Rings.

The film’s climactic battle sequence lasts nearly 45 minutes, making it one of the longest large-scale cinematic battles ever filmed.
Martin Freeman filmed his final scenes as Bilbo on the same day that Ian Holm (older Bilbo) completed his, symbolically passing the torch between actors.
Benedict Cumberbatch, who voices the dragon Smaug and the Necromancer, performed motion capture for both roles, including facial expressions and body movements.
The character Tauriel, played by Evangeline Lilly, was created specifically for the films and does not appear in J.R.R. Tolkien’s original novel.
Peter Jackson included a hidden cameo of himself in the film—he appears briefly as a dwarf fleeing Erebor during Smaug’s attack.
