Elijah Wood: The Rolling Stone Studio Live at SXSW

Elijah Wood joins The Rolling Stone Studio with Brian Hiatt at SXSW to talk about stepping into chaos for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, where he plays a devil’s advocate with a possibly immortal edge. He breaks down how the sequel picks up seamlessly from the original, what it took to survive a set drenched in fake blood, and why this role let him lean into something darker and more playful. Elsewhere, Wood reflects on the very real possibility of returning as Frodo in The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, along with memories from the original films, the story behind his Elvish tattoo, and the unexpected treasures in his record collection.
