Thanks to the world famous Lord of the Rings and Armageddon…whatever happened to actress Liv Tyler?

The star of the sci-fi film Armageddon with Ben Affleck and Bruce Willis, the unforgettable Arwen from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, she was one of the most popular faces of the 90s and 2000s, and then became increasingly rare on screens.

Bruce Willis and lover Ben Affleckwhich brought him to international stardom.

Then things move very quickly for Liv Tyler, who is cast as Arwen in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, an iconic role if ever there was one. We next see her baby, but her appearance is notable: she stands out in the credits of The Incredible Hulk in 2008 (joining the circle of stars who starred in Marvel and The Lord of the Rings) and the TV series The Leftovers.

Still rare, but still active, Liv Tyler stars in the James Gray-directed sci-fi film Ad Astra, directed by Brad Pitt, as well as the first season of the TV series 9-1-1: Lone Star, which she left in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The actor, who is filming in Los Angeles, then returns to London, where his partner and their children live.

After this sudden departure from 9-1-1: Lone Star in 2020, Liv Tyler completely disappeared from the radar, which surprised many fans. Why this long draw of drawers? For a very simple reason: the priority of family life.

After a five-year (!) absence, Liv Tyler returned to the spotlight this year by rejoining her character Betty Ross, almost 17 years after The Incredible Hulk, in Captain America: Brave New World. “I took a break from work in recent years, I was at home with my children”– he said with the extra microphoneapprox The website Celebrity Nine reported.

And Liv Tyler, now 48, concludes: “It was a really good way, after the Covid-19 pandemic and everything, to get back to something special. It was kind of a great way to remind myself how much I love performing.” Can we say that soon we will see him again on the screen? The future will tell, but for now, the actor’s name is not linked to any project yet…
