Richard Armitage has taken to his twitter account to drop some obscure allusions to the end of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies using the hashtag #whatreallyhappenstoThorin.

We do have a pretty solid idea what will happen to Thorin. If you prefer to remain oblivious, we suggest you not read down any further!

LAST CHANCE!
Richard Armitage has alluded to the final scene on a few occasions, including during this interview with TORn:
GD: With all that you bring to Thorin, people — especially those who don’t know what’s coming — will be devastated in Film 3!
RA: If they haven’t read the book… I know. [with gleeful excitement] Oh it’s so good. I can’t even begin to tell you — it’s so good… The way that’s structured — I know we’re not supposed to talk about it, but it’s… at every level it surpassed my expectation.
