Actor Elijah Wood turned 43 today. His first appearance on the big screen dates back 35 years since the actor took his first steps in cinema when he was only eight years old, and not in any movie!
Indeed, if the actor was able to achieve global success in the early 2000s thanks to Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy, he already had the opportunity to appear in another very famous trilogy, this time from the 80s, way back. future.
In the second part, released in 1989, we were able to find this very young Elijah Wood, on stage (at exactly 15:20), where Marty McFly, who was then projected to the future of 2015, arrives on modern video. A toy arcade machine of its time that became old school in the future. That’s what Elijah Wood and his friend make clear to him, unbelievably in this Wild West game that also heralds a wink-wink third installment.
Later, the young actor appeared in fifteen films during the 90s (including: Good Son, Deep Influence and Irresistible North, where the Hollywood superstar first appeared on the screen), but in 2001 the actor reached the whole world. Famed for playing Frodo in the first installment of JRR Tolkien’s epic fantasy novel adaptation, The Fellowship of the Ring.
We will find him a few years later with Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet in Michel Gondry’s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and also in the special world of Robert Rodriguez’s Sin City, as a disturbing serial killer cannibal.
Today the trilogy was signed by Peter Jackson, with a very simple concept, namely trying to find out which of the three films these images are from. If you score 15/15, you are the king!
