I would say Elijah, but I'm going to go with Dominic Monaghan. It just sounds like something Dom would say.

I'm not going to go with the obvious - even though it is probably correct. I'm going to go and say:Orlando Bloom ?

Ok. Maybe I will go for the "obvious" and say: Elijah?

Well, it would help if I actually knew what the quote was talking about, and since I don't...I'll go with a random. Dominic Monaghan?

Sorry! I was gone. But I have come back to you now at the turn of the tide. Evisse is right.....it is Ian McKellen.
The "many of us" that he was talking about is many gandalfs. The CG Gandalf, Videogame Gandalf, Stunt Double Gandalfs and etc.
So it's Evisse's turn now. Again, sorry for the delay.

Not normally a quiz room fiend, but...

...I couldn't believe it when I saw your clue. I had read a snippet of what I presume must be the relevant interview with him just earlier this week.

How about this then, in response?

Quote:
Like any form of magic or war story, the books are incredibly dark. They're primal as well as fantastical, so I think it's important to have a director who has his feet planted in gore and fantasy.
