A second trailer for the insanely anticipated “The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug” has been released, offering an even better look at the adventures awaiting our favorite pint-sized fictitious character Bilbo Baggins.

As usual, you can see it in full and in HD above.

Unlike the first teaser for the second installment in the Peter Jackson-directed franchise, this trailer is a bit more detailed and, towards the end, also offers a sample of Benedict Cumberbatch’s exquisite voice as the fire-spitting, killer dragon Smaug.

It also shows more of Orlando Bloom’s Legolas and Evangeline Lilly’s Tauriel, and includes the promise of insane action scenes and twists in the story. I don’t know about you, but I’m completely sold on it already.

“The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug” will be out in theaters on December 13. Will you be seeing it then?
