Ringer Spy PVC<\/b> recenly flew back from his long trek to New Zealand with this amazing bunch of info!! Sauron’s got a name! of sorts…if any intrepid Ringer Spy can come up with a pic of the actor who plays Sauron, send it on over!<\/p>\n
Xoanon,<\/p>\n
I was a fly on the wall at the set of The Lord of the Rings recently.<\/p>\n
There was a whole bunch of extras AND Sauron (20 Elves 20 Gondors) and six Orcs.<\/p>\n
I saw Sauron sitting on a chair on a dolly with the 40 Elves and Gondors shouting at him<\/p>\n
The 6 Orcs were just dead bodies in the scene. Having been recently dispatched by the Elves and Men. Saurons outfit is pretty cool its black evil looking armor all over with a full face helmet, that has 4 big spikes on it, one in each corner, they had SPFX smoke coming out the back of his suit.<\/p>\n
He reminded me of the bad guys from the movie KRULL except they only had three spikes on their helmets<\/p>\n
Now here’s the BIG news Sauron is played by…..MICHAEL HUGHES. As an actor he’s nobody but he’s a major player from the WETA workshop, he still works there part time and he’s the one who designed and made Saurons suit. I’m thinking maybe he’ll be a sort of Darth Vader character with somebody else doing the voice perhaps, he’s got a full face helmet, and we never see his face.<\/p>\n
The day before they filmed something using the gate to Rivendell which was a great looking (if basic) set consisting of an arch way and a bit of wall each side of it.<\/p>\n
The Orc weapons were very cool rough shaped and each was different some of latex foam and some of crude aluminum they looked like scimitars.<\/p>\n
That’s all for now, keep the raid close-by
