Luke Evans plays the Bard in 'The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug'.
BEFORE reaching their final destination and facing the dragon, the Dwarves make a stop at Lake-town. This is the town where one Bard lives.
Played by Luke Evans, this character is an enigma. A popular character in the book, there’s more to Bard than meets the eye. For the role, Evans was able to retain his Welsh accent as Jackson made the citizens of Dale, who fled to Lake-town when it was destroyed by the dragon Smaug, speak in the same accent as Evans.
