- Award-winning actor Andy Serkis (The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit) reprises his role as Gollum and reads from 'Riddles in the Dark'. The new unabridged audiobook of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit (on sale September 3rd 2020) is now available to order here: smarturl.it/TheHobbitAudio

Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely travelling further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End.
But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of thirteen dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day, to whisk him away on a journey ‘there and back again’.
They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon....

Give that man an Oscar. It's ridiculous for this talent not to be recognised...
SERIOUSLY his portrayal of Gollum will never be matched
Oh, it’s recognized.
I didn't realise that an Oscar meant you were 'recognised'...
He needs a LIFETIME achievement award for sure
@@ajtaffy in american brainlets it really does.
My god the way he INSTANTLY switches back and forth between that smooth, radio-friendly, wonderful baritone to that iconically hoarse squealy nightmare voice is just absolutely baffling to me how does he DO that. And also he manages to sound quite a lot like Martin Freeman while reading Bilbo's lines! In awe of his talent creativity and mastery
yes, he's a genius! amazing craft and control of the voice! brilliant
I really, really hope that Serkis does “The Lord of the Rings” as well! I could listen to him narrate all day!
I love you
I hope so too!
Yes i hope so to !!
My dream
I have some excellent news for you, frendo. He's doing it.
0:58 "'hherscrEEEASGGSGSHHSGHSHAAAGHH,' said Gollum, and became quite polite." this man is incredible
Hollywood should re-do The Hobbit with Andy Serkis playing every part.
How many characters is he in a mo-cap suit for?
@@joekaput747 if you’re asking about LOTR and The Hobbit he only motioned Gollum and directed several scenes himself
Except for Dain IronFoot, right? Right?
Lmfao like Eddy Murphy in the Klumps?
Coming this summer, Andy Serkis is… The Fellowship… rated PG-13.“ - South Park Rob Schneider trailer narrator voice
I absolutely love the fact that he's doing The Voice in the audiobook. It's like Gollum is always alive inside him, just waiting to come out.
I absolutely love that he used his Gollum voice from Peter Jackson's movies! Yes!!!!!!
And he imitates Martin Freeman as Bilbo very well.
The Gollum voice hasn't faltered at all in 20 years!
You know what's precious? The fact that we have this reading recorded by the ONLY Golum ever.
Serkis is a gem.
Man, Andy Serkis would make a great Bilbo...
Marion Baggins he’d make a pretty good Gollum too, wouldn’t he precious.
@@richardhighsmith 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 He would make an awesome Gollum...
@@marionbaggins he would make the best Gollum actually...
@@InsanityGrant 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 OH YES!!!
I just finished his audiobook; his portrayal of each character was PHENOMENAL, particularly that of Thorin, Gandalf, and Beorn (aside of the obvious, Smeagol/Gollum duo).
Does he sing Far Over The Misty Mountains to the the same tune as the movie?
@@davidleavitt835 Yes actually! It’s a unique interpretation.😅
I caught a bit of it, and not bad. Serkis sounded a touch menacing in some bits of chapter one. Next time I think a full cast version would suit.
Okay . . . I'm not much into audio books, but I have GOT to have a copy of this! Mr. Serkis does a wonderful job here.
He has made an official audio book on Audible that you can purchase. Its amazing! He needs to do the LOTR series next! I will buy it (not sure about everyone else)
Lilliana Hogg I hope this happens!
@@katygaston8777 it is!
it's masterful that he can still do the gollum voice perfectly
You know how often he probably does that voice in day to day life? I'd be using it every day if I could lol
No one can ever compare to when it comes to narrating a book like that of the great actor Andy Serkis. No One!
well...the narrations of Rob Inglis are superb aswell
@@GamingEntertainment12 Very True.
Jeffrey Combs does pretty well narrating Herbert West's Re-animantor.
Hello gorgeous 🌹
Thanks for the beautiful comment, I'm so overwhelmed by your amazing words 🌹🌻💞🤗🙏
Elijah Wood is pretty good. His work on Huckleberry Finn is amazing.
I've always found it interesting how gollums voice has a lower sound and a higher sound simultaneously
It's amazing that he can switch so quickly and effortlessly between Gollum, Bilbo and "the narrator". For sure Andy is one of the most superior voice actors out there.
This man is a national treasure.
interNational
WorldClass
Please pay him to perform LOTR, we will pay for it happily
I already have a copy and FUCK IT
I am getting another because Andy Serkis doing the Hobbit is GOLD!
His Martin Freeman impression is SPOT ON
He has a really good voice for audiobooks
I've just finished listening to The Hobbit audiobook on Audible. I reeeeeeeeally hope Andy narrates more. Was honestly so much fun to listen and imagine along to.
Yes!
The whole LotR trilogy narrated by him is out now :D
@@Kurayami1995 Already on The Two Towers 👌
It's ridiculous how much I love this audiobook AND how happy I was when it was announced that he'll NARRATE THE LORD OF THE RINGS TOO
Hello gorgeous 🌹
Thanks for the beautiful comment, I'm so overwhelmed by your amazing words 🌹🌻💞🤗🙏
This man has so much talent and it is a shame he doesn't get more attention
What? This is a joke right? He's the 8th highest grossing actor /of all time/
The funniest part is how well and distinct the different voices are and if you close your eyes you can tell the characters apart.
His Gollum voice is also now the definitive version of it, he really made it come to life.
I love hearing him read the riddle scene with his Gollum voice - perfect! I want to hear him do the part in Two Towers telling the Hobbits about the path down to Gorgoroth now!
If he ever does LOTR audiobook i would love for him to narrate as gollum whole time.
He’s doing them up on audible for order
0:28-0:48 perfect expressions of Gollum.
After hearing him introduce himself in the audiobook intro. I was waiting for this moment
Andy Serkis IS Gollum...!
Husband gave me the CD set last Christmas. How I love it! Perfect reading of the text. I play it while doing housework. Lovely story to pass the time. Never gets old.
This guy seems very interested in this Gollum guy. Might do a good adaption of him someday.
Petition for Andy Serkis narrating the Lotr trilogy please!
He did a phenomenal job bringing the characters to life, brought back my imagination from when i was a kid reading the books.
your wish is granted.
Listened to the the whole audiobook and my god Andy was incredible. I hope he returns to read the LOTR trilogy next.
This makes me wonder if any other actor could have portrayed Gollum differently, yet just as well.
Hearing him go be between characters is fucking insane
when I was reading the chapter, I would read Gollum’s lines in the way Andy Serkis does it.
His Bilbo dialogue is just as good!
incredible how he can go in and out of gollum and back to narrator and to Bilbo. WOW!
His voice got to Snoke levels of deep. Incredible actor.
Love it! Love hearing Smeagol say "praps" and "bitsy"
I love that he plays this differently then he did in the films
When I heard about this release, I downloaded a copy immediately and listened all day long. Mr. Serkis, you are amazing! Thank you for sharing your talents with us. I cannot wait for the release of LotR!
I'd started the audiobook not knowing who the reader was, and then Gollum started speaking and recognized instantly
I'll buy the audiobook JUST for the fact that he does the Gollum voice for Gollum. Instant purchase
This man HAS to read the legend of Drizzt books. I can't imagine what voice he'll give Wulgar and Drizzt. Regis and catti-brie and bruneor I have an idea
OH MAN! And back to Middle-Earth we go, Precious!
What a talent
Perfect blend of book and movie Gollum
My Preciousssss
Amazing voice.
Listening to this, its by far one of the best readings of an audiobook I've ever listened to, he has the relaxing and melodic voice that keeps you intrigued to listen
Very well done, I'd love to hear him doing a lot of other audiobooks too
This is absolutely astounding. Amazingly well done, Mr. Serkis.
I read the hobbit yesterday while I was at work and i got to read riddles in the dark and i did my impressions of Gollum that hast to be my favorite chapter
Mm. Even his speaking voice is fantastic. That musical, warm timbre. I love how versatile his voice is!
Just Finished the Lord of the Rings Audiobook narrated by Mr Andy Serkis.
The best narrated audio book I have ever listened without any competition!
Thank you Sir! You are Fantastic and your storytelling performance is one of the top cultural product!
I need this!!!! Also, I really want the lord of the rings read by Serkis!!!! I NEED that, my precious!!!
Dear Harper Collins, I would literally pay $1,000+ for the entire "video book". Please tell me you filmed the whole thing.
This man is the real smigo after all😂😂
Andy is a master! I've heard other actors do voices and they all sound the same.
My god, this is incredible. Smoked a bong right now and listening to this is insane
Amazing
Unbelievable, the truest of talent
this is amazing 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Man, and the tone he makes for Smaug conversation is frankly astonishing!
Amaaaaaaziiiiiiiiiiinggggg.....I'll buy all the series read by him thanks to make him read the series...
This is the best thing I've ever heard in my life!
I have never been one for orated books but I might just be changing my mind now. You are amazing.
That honestly almost made me cry.
My God... this is so good!
I'm listening to the audiobook and it's so brilliant! Andy Serkis is amazing!
This is the best thing ever
Andy Serkis! One of my biggest idols in voice acting but also motion capture. He’s already been a legend to me since 2002.
Andy Serkis is so damn underrated, though he might be happy to remain so...any production he's part of, its quality automatically goes up!
Get this man an Oscar 🎉
My favorite
I love this so much
This is gold!!!!😊😊😊❤
Super talented
Wearing a Joy Division T-shirt .Andy got good musical taste
I'm so buying this!
Is it.... scrumptiously crunchable?
I came for gold and I found precious!
I would love to see the reaction of someone who's never seen gollum before and imagining what he looks like based off the voice
I just bought the Audiobook and it is awesome! Can't wait for LOTR as well!
Andy serkis is highly talented❤
Sounds just like him.
This is the BEST “adaptation” EVER!
I have already listened to The Hobbit and to the Lord of the Rings about 10 times, in a row! Try syncing it with “A Long Expected Soundscape”.
0:58 ÆÆÆÆÆ, said Gollum
why is it so funny?
Did anyone else feel that his Gollum voice was even scarier in this audiobook?
nice Joy Division shirt too
"HHRRAAEGHEARRHH, said Gollum" lol
Tolkien himself recorded this part of "Riddles in the Dark" beginning with "Deep down here..." and ending with "We hates it forever." Interesting to contrast this reading with Tolkien's.
My only wish would be lord of the rings audiobooks by all lotr cast 🥰🥰
fucking incredible
ell yeah
Great 👌👏👏🥀
I've never manage to listen to an entire audiobook, but I want to buy this just because Andy Serkins.
Nice!! Now, they should play Joy Division in the background!
Gollum reads "Riddles in the dark".
