Richard should have been chosen to play 007, such a criminally underrated actor.
Abi Brown
Richard is a beautiful beautiful man and is such a talented actor. He's a proper gentleman and really puts a lot of work into his roles. His performance of Thorin, especially in the second film, is some of the best acting I've seen. He is one of my favourite actors, along with Mr. Cumberbatch and Mr. Hiddleston.

Thorin is my all time fav character I cried my eyes out when he died wished he lived

I love Richard Armitage! Richard gives the best and most thoughtful answers in all his interviews! Not always crazy about Thorin but Richard Armitage does a fantastic job as Thorin and also does a great job singing!
Charles Xavier
He's also gonna do an even more fantastic job like 'Wolverine'.

Thorin's so damn attractive, my friends tell me I have a weird taste in men, but I don't care

Any character Richard Armitage plays is incredibly atractive because Richard is incredibly atractive. And his voice... My god! I love his deep manly voice. Just imagine that voice whispering in your ear🤤😍
