New Entry

Elijah Jordan Wood (born January 28, 1981) is an American actor. Acting since the age of eight, Wood is best known for the role of Frodo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings film trilogy. Making his film debut with a minor part in Back to the Future Part II (1989), Wood landed a succession of subsequent larger roles, and became a critically acclaimed child actor.

After his role as Frodo in The Lord of the Rings, Wood has resisted typecasting by choosing varied roles in critically-acclaimed films such as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Sin City and Everything Is Illuminated. Most recently he starred in ensemble film Bobby and provided the voice of the main character in award-winning animated film Happy Feet. He also played an American tourist turned vampire in Paris, je t'aime. In 2005, he started his own record label.
