Lord of the Rings Movie Trilogy - Elves

I don't usually look at casting of movies / films but sometimes I'm curious. Somehow I wound up on LOTR and noticed that Elrond was Hugo Weaving. Elrond is the head elf, Arwyn's Father. Hugo Weaving was also V in V for Vendetta.

Am I the only one who thought Elrond was Sam Neill all this time ? 🤣🤣🤣

You might be!

Hugo was also Agent Smith in the Matrix series, fun fact.

If you ask me, that whole trilogy was a missed opportunity to have an elf named Elvis.

Elfis would probably have been the coolest Elf of all time. If he wore blue suede shoes He could have been the best goddam movie Elf ever, hands down.

In the animated series called Disenchantment, they played a lot with Elf names. I think there may have been an Elfis or maybe Elvi.
