Quote: Lord of the Rings Co-Stars

[wowie]

"He's got an immensely capable exterior face and an immensely rich interior persona," observes Jonathan Rhys-Davies, who plays "Rings' " fighting dwarf, Gimli.

Liv Tyler, who portrays Mortensen's love interest, the elf Arwen, in Jackson's sagas, puts it more succinctly: "Women go nuts over Viggo."

Mortensen takes a jocular approach to his newfound fame and sexy image, which has intensified as he's been spotted out in public more often with "Rings" co-stars such as Elijah Wood (who plays Frodo), Dominic Monaghan (Merry) and Billy Boyd (Pippin).

(used this one, but since I'm looking for LOTR co-stars...)

"Every time my pockets get full of strangers' phone numbers, I empty the contents of one pocket to Dominic and the other to Billy," he says with a smile. "And then it's their problem."

A pensive hero
Poet, painter, philosopher, photographer - 'King' actor has many faces
Bob Longino in Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 19 Dec '03

Do you know where these were taken? You can really see how tall Liv Tyler is, she's really huge. And Viggo's natural hair color seems lighter than the dye he's using now, he also seems more weary now. I think he's stressing too much on the disgusting political situation.

It was a ROTK premiere, not sure where.
