Legolas is in the trailer, and he is the Elf king's son, so he will be in the movie. I haven't heard anything recent about the Tauriel/Kili relationship, so it may not be in the movie. But I think it's a good thing Tauriel is in the movie. As much as I love LOTR and The Hobbit, they need more strong female characters.
