The voices of Middle-earth are every bit as legendary as the characters themselves, but some of the actors behind them sound wildly different in real life. Join us as we count down the Lord of the Rings performances where the on-screen accent and the actor’s natural voice are miles apart. Which transformation surprised you most? Our countdown includes Elijah Wood as Frodo Baggins, Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn, Sean Astin as Samwise Gamgee, Cate Blanchett as Galadriel, Hugo Weaving as Elrond, Karl Urban as Éomer and more! From Hobbits to Elves to Dwarves, these stars truly disappeared into their roles.
