We've just gotten word that tomorrow night you'll be able to witness the red carpet premiere of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey live from Wellington, New Zealand in the comfort of your own home! The live stream will begin at 9:50 pm EST/6:50 pm PST. Once the show has concluded, it will replay twice in the player provided below.

In addition to the live stream making its way online, what is probably the best poster for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has also surfaced (via IMP Awards). You can see it below.

Opening in 3D, 2D and IMAX 3D theaters on December 14, the anticipated film follows title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, which was long ago conquered by the dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers. Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain, first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever... Gollum. Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum's "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities... A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.

Ian McKellen, Martin Freeman, Cate Blanchett, Ian Holm, Christopher Lee, Hugo Weaving, Elijah Wood, Andy Serkis and many, many more star.
