Actress Evangeline Lilly says her role in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was the only job that could have persuaded her to hit the spotlight once again.
Although previously retired, the actress had always dreamed of playing this role, and her excitement was so strong, that she was willing to do it even after just giving birth. Speaking to the Daily News, the star said, “I was in mommyland, I was a month out of giving birth when they called to offer me this role. I can’t imagine anything else could have made me go back to work when I did.”
She also spoke about what makes her so interested in the books. She said, “I think it is kind of fascinating that it was my favorite book given that there aren’t any female characters in it for me to gravitate towards.”
“That’s one of the main reasons that this character had to be created in this adaptation. This is 2013, somewhere you have to draw a line in the sand.”
