Luke Evans is getting a legendary moment: He plays Aramis in 'The Three Musketeers,' Zeus within the approaching 'Immortals,' and he's been cast inside a proper role in Peter Jackson's 'Hobbit' films as Bard the Bowman, a heroic human who involves Bilbo Baggins' aid. Evans spoken to Moviefone about 'Immortals' (search for our interview with him about playing the youngest version from the Greek God nearer to the movie's release on November. 11) and just how much he's taking pleasure in shooting the "longest job of his existence" in New Zealand. Your character, Bard the Bowman, includes a very pivotal role. This is a large moment there in the finish from the story. There's a legendary moment there, yeah. Are you currently practicing your archery abilities? Yes, I had been trained for 3 days in New Zealand having a stunt coordinator, learning my new weapon. I have gone from swords in 'Musketeers' along with a bow -- a lengthy bow at this -- for 'The Hobbit,' therefore it is been a very interesting education, due to there being very techniques used in utilizing a bow and arrow, so I have learned plenty of them to really make it look realistic. When would you return to focus on it? Time passes in three days for my second block. Going for a little break to spread out 'Musketeers' and 'Immortals' and speak with you lovely people. The stars who made 'The The almighty from the Rings' films had this unique camaraderie, are you currently going through that on 'The Hobbit?' Yes, I'm. It's interesting since the boys -- so when I only say the boys, I am talking about the dwarves -- happen to be there since Feb, so that they already had their team setup. There is however an attractive energy when you attend Wellington and also you satisfy the whole team, including Fran [Walsh] and Philippa [Boyens] and also the whole crew. Everyone. It is a Kiwi quality that we love plus they immediately embrace you and also you are area of the family. It simply kind of goes beyond completely with the layers [from the production], in the runners up up. Everybody's there loving the very fact they are doing something incredibly special and that i feel totally honored to stay in this family. Personally i think some of it now and that i miss them greatly and that i can't wait to return, to tell the truth. Just how much longer is it necessary to film your behalf? I am there until the center of the coming year. It is the longest job of my existence. We can not wait to determine it. Neither can one.
