The Hobbit

As the voice of the dragon Smaug, in the next Tolkien big-screen incarnation The Hobbit, not only will we see Benedict return to his devlishly fun ways as a villain, but it will also be the theatrical reunion of his Sherlock counterpart Martin Freeman who plays the numero uno hobbit, Bilbo Baggins.

@Bec2963580 Thanks for pointing that out. Changed the text to say he was only nominated...sadly.

No, Ben did NOT get a BAFTA for Hawking. He was nominated, but he didn't win. He has yet to receive a BAFTA for anything he's done, which is something that ticks off his loyal fans very much.
