The Squint was a Man of Bree who worked as an assassin, mercenary, and bandit alongside his partner in crime Bill Ferny Sr. In The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug he was hired by Azog to kill Thorin II Oakenshield, tracking him to The Prancing Pony in Bree but failing when Gandalf intervened. Portrayed by Matt Smith and imagined as the father of the Squint-eyed Southerner, he is a non-canonical character created for the trilogy.
