Martin Freeman said that his Sherlock co-star Benedict Cumberbatch will be joining him in The Hobbit, according BBC News Entertainment Correspondent Lizo Mzimba.

Does it mean the latest installment of the Disney Cash Cow is a good movie? Good enough. I mean, it's a Pirates movie and your expectations cannot POSSIBLY be that high, considering you sat through the convoluted mess of previous sequels and yet probably couldn't pass a test on what exactly happened during the overly dense plot(s) of Dead Man's Chest and At World's End [...]
