I'm always amazed at anyone's interest in what I have to say.

I mean, I have a great job. I get to dress up and become somebody else, especially when it's someone like Legolas, who's this super-cool kind of otherworldly elf. It's, like, I'm lucky, man, so why would I not appreciate that?

I think a film set is a quite controlled environment and you feel like you can trust them and it is going to be a safe place to work, but I really don't think about it.

Elves are like trees, grounded and focused from the trunk down but graceful and agile on top.

If you read 50 books, I'll get you a motor bike.

Yeah, I mean the material, directors, the other cast, and if you think you can do something with the character then you do it and go from there. I am looking forward to doing some smaller movies.

Obviously I always wanted to do a contemporary piece.
