Elijah Wood Quotes

• [on recently being involved in a lot of genre films as either a producer, actor or both and explaining why that is] – Some of that is aligned with my own autonomy and growth as a human being. I was 16 when I did The Faculty (1998). So I would say the last five or six years of my life feel like a galvanization of my own identity, the things I’m interested in. I’ve always watched horror movies. For a while, the horror genre in the U.S. – at least, from The Faculty (1998) on – was really a much-maligned genre. It was in dire straights. It came at the end of the Kevin Williamson explosion, when everyone was trying to make a lot of these teen horror films. It carried on for years after that to middling-to-poor results. Then it was fraught with not-great examples of the genre, with the occasional good film. I barely wanted to do The Faculty. The only reason I wanted to do it was because [Robert] Rodriguez was doing it and I knew he’d do something interesting. But that was really coming at the tail-end of that horror film scene. Going into my twenties, I hadn’t come across any good horror films. I feel a bit like I’m on the inside looking out now. [2015]
• [on his horror/genre production company SpectreVision] – … I’ve been a fan of the genre for a long time. I met my producing partners through another project that we were producing together that was not in the horror genre but we became friends and quickly realized that we shared a mutual love and appreciation for horror. A lot of the best films in the last 20 years have come from Europe and other parts of the world. And we were really inspired by those movies as well as films from the ’70s and early ’80s when it felt like people were taking the genre seriously. I love movies where you can have great storytelling and a great script with a really wonderful cast and yet still tell a compelling, horrific story. Those are the kind of movies that we’re inspired by and the kind of movies that we want to make.
• [on The Faculty (1998)] It was great. That movie was coming at what was the tail end of that Scream-inspired revisit to teenage horror films. Kevin Williamson started a great thing and a bad thing at the same time. That always happens when something really great comes out – there are a million imitators. The Faculty (1998) came in right at the end and I remember getting the script and being aware of that and a little bit wary of jumping into what was such a popular genre and not one I personally loved beyond the ones that established it. But Rodriguez was attached, which I found very exciting because I knew he would do something really interesting with the film. The way it was cast was really smart and there’s some great little homages in there. It was a blast. It was a great time. It was an awesome summer in Austin, Texas, making an alien horror movie!
• [hearing that Sean Astin wanted to correct rumors that his character Sam Gamgee had a homosexual love for Frodo] Yeah, we’ve never had that perspective on the relationship, but there is a real bond and a real closeness. Which was easy for Sean and I because we became so close making the film. So it’s a natural thing to display and to show and I think it comes across without any real effort … Frodo really starts to fail physically and emotionally and mentally, so Sam is there to kind of pick up the pieces and show his affection for Frodo and really almost carry him to the end. So that relationship is really important in this film, particularly. … I think it’s really refreshing and nice. I’m really close with my friends and affectionate, and I don’t think that there is anything suspicious about that, necessarily. So it’s good to show it and have it be an unisexual thing, definitely.
• I don’t think I can relate to stage fright because I think stage fright is a very specific level of fear that’s pretty debilitating. But I can relate to the lack of confidence. It’s a pretty human thing. The hardest thing for me [in Grand Piano (2013)] was really the playing. So much of my job was technical.
• [on Harvey (1950)] There’s an aspect of an imaginary character and relationship there that I find really interesting and love in that film. There’s definitely an element of that (in ‘Wilfred’). It also helps that the dog smokes pot.
• I really do love making movies and being a part of other people’s vision. But Simian [his record label] is coming out of a direct need to do something on my own, to build something from the ground up that has nothing to do with the career that I’ve established for myself. To face something in your life where you’re not being handed responsibility, you’re creating it — I think that’s really important.
• Iggy read and approved the script, so we’re going to start shooting this year. It’s totally awesome. It scares the shit out of me, because I love him. And it’s terrifying to play someone so iconic. I would never want to be the one to screw with people’s perception of who he was. But that’s also why I want to do it. I am genuinely a huge fan, so at least it’s in the hands of someone who cares. (On the Iggy Pop biopic “The Passenger”, in which Woods will play Iggy Pop, himself).
• I don’t know that I necessarily feel more comfortable in the context of smaller films, but I tend to feel more comfortable more often than not with the material of smaller films.
• My philosophy has always been to try to put myself into roles and films that are different. That intensified after ‘Lord of the Rings’ because it was so massive, but it’s something I’ve always believed in — wanting to change people’s perceptions and challenge myself as an actor.
• [on New Zealand:] I will go back … I think Bill [Billy Boyd] and Dom [Dominic Monaghan)]and I are thinking of buying a house together. We don’t want to lose our connection with New Zealand – I love the country and I love Wellington and I want to go back. I would love to have a place to live there if I do go back for any period of time. It would just be a time share. It makes the most sense for us to go in on a place, ’cause then we can get a great place. We could be there together and have holidays there, or if I wanted to go there and live there for a little while I could. It just kind of makes sense. Then we could rent it out when we aren’t there. That’s the idea, anyway. (On hearing this, Billy Boyd said, “Elijah said that, huh? He put a curse on it.”) [December 12, 2003]
• [on filming the scene in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) in which “Sam” tries to make “Frodo” recall the Shire:] “That day was very difficult and it was a long day. I remember Peter [Peter Jackson] actually crying on set after a few takes. It was a real defining moment for Sean [Sean Astin] and I, not only in this film, but in our acting” [December 14, 2003].
• [after the last press junket for LOTR in New York:] There’s a real sense of completion now, because we can look at the entirety of the trilogy and say we’ve done it, our work is finished. That’s a great feeling. And I think that, as it comes to a close, we look to the relationships forged in New Zealand and throughout the experience, and they will carry on. The fellowship will carry on. And that gives us great hope. Our lives will interweave forever. [December 18, 2003]
• [on concluding filming of LOTR:] Frodo will look more haggard, but not as bad as Gollum. There is a massive transformation, but the journey should have a physical effect on him, which makes sense as I look a lot older than when I started filming. I was 18 then, and it’s appropriate that he looks older, too. And if I’ve done my job right, then you should empathize with him. When it came to the end, I was very emotional. I was heaving, I couldn’t breathe, and the last bits of the movie really wrecked me. They gave each actor his own farewell, when we were back there earlier this year. You’d go on to a sound stage and Peter [director Peter Jackson] would make a speech about each actor and then bring in their sword and a clapperboard. It was completely overwhelming. When it came time for me to give a speech, I was so gone I just couldn’t do it. I now have the ears, the feet, the sword, the Ring, and one of the maps of Middle-Earth. The whole thing has had a massive impact on us. I think Bill [Billy Boyd] and Dom [Dominic Monaghan] and I are thinking about buying a house here [in New Zealand], because we don’t want to lose our connection with the country. It makes most sense to go in on a place because we could use it like a timeshare and then holiday at different times or together. But we’re so lazy and completely hopeless at doing things, so it remains to be seen if it’ll ever happen. [December 11, 2003]
• I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing in the world.
• If I wasn’t an actor, I’d be a secret agent.
• [on worrying about the high expectations of Lord of the Rings fans when he was cast as Frodo:] “I definitely felt the pressure. I wanted to live up to all of the expectations. But when I got into costume and worked with the others, I just didn’t think about it anymore.”
• [on celebrity:] “I won’t change and my perspective won’t change. I want to continue my life the way I live it, and I’m not going to let anything stop me from doing that. It isn’t all about acting. There’s a lot more to life than Hollywood.”
