Robert Kazinsky as Fili in An Unexpected Journey

Hello friends, how are you all? DainPig is back.

Watching An Unexpected Journey, first movie of The Hobbit Trilogy and my favorite one, I noticed a interesting thing. During some scenes, we can see a different actor playing Fili. Searching web, I discovered this guy is Robert Kazinsky.

 

Robert Kazinsky is a british actor who was going to play the dwarf Fili in the movies, but for some reason he left the trilogy. Dean O'Gorman, who made an audition for Bilbo, got a role as the blonde dwarf, Thorin's nephew Fili.

As I said before, there are some moments only during An Unexpected Journey, that we can see Robert playing Fili. Only AUJ, because he left The Hobbit before they shot The Desolation of Smaug.

The screenshot above is from the clip of Misty Moutains Cold, main theme of AUJ. Robert is there, sitted down at the shadows.... hmm, why at the shadows, it is like someone had put that there.

Now we see, again, Robert Kazinsky as Fili. But now he is fighting the trolls. This is one of the best screenshots of his face.

After captured by the trolls, we still seeing Robert's face.

A great shot of Kazinsky's Fili is above. He is clearly another person here.

Now, these two I don't understand. It is not Robert, because is a very old man, but is not Dean too! A great mistery, who's that? Looks like a 50 years old man.
