First Official Picture of Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins

Here it is at last — your first look at Martin Freeman as Bilbo Baggins in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit. What do you think? Does this seem like a hero worth having Leonard Nimoy sing about?

The first half of The Hobbit comes out December 2012, with the second half coming a year later. Here are a couple more images, which come via Entertainment Weekly. Check out one more awesome Hobbit pic over at the link.
