'This Day We Fight' speech in RotK trailer - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

At first I did think it was Bernard Hill's voice then I opted for Aragorn. The speech itself does seem like something Aragorn would say at Morannon, facing impossible odds, defiant to the last. Or it could be applied to the Rohirrim, where Theoden is talking about the long-friendship between Gondor and Rohan. But then Gondor and Rohan's relationship isn't really addressed in the film, it seems that Theoden rather resents the Gondorians (in TTT when Aragorn is arguing with Theoden). Aragorn's line "This day we fight!" does IMHO match with the voice of the preceding speech and itmakes sense that the line also fits into the speech. I mean, all this talk about "a day may come.." "..but it is not this day..." "This day we fight!" It all sounds like it belongs to one speech.
