Sharing A Tattoo With LOTR’s Main Cast
Lord of the Rings is undoubtedly one of Sea Astin’s most well-known films. Return of the King, the most recent film, grossed $1.142 billion at the box office and is regarded as one of the most influential films ever filmed. Astin, along with seven of his major eight castmates, agreed to get matching tattoos at the end of that incredibly intense epic! The tattoo is of the number nine, the number of the first fellowship, inscribed in J.R.R. Tolkein’s complicated Tengwar script. Astin’s tattoo is on his ankle.
Showing Up In Several TV Shows
Following his international success with The Lord of the Rings, Sean Astin shifted gears, working on television episodes rather than movies. That’s not to suggest he didn’t appear in films; he did, but his TV resume fills up quickly after The Lord of the Rings. Since his time as Sam, Astin has appeared in the fifth season of 24 and the second season of Jerimiah as a season regular. After that, he appeared in the critically acclaimed television programs My Name is Earl, Monk, The Strain, and Las Vegas.
