I love, love, love Elijah Wood! He was very sweet and accommodating in person, and he’s exactly how you imagined him. Oh my gosh…it’s Frodo! Wood returns to the role of Mumble, he’s now a father and having a hard time connecting with his son Erik.
In this interview, we talked about:
*** Why he returned the second time around
*** The dancing and animation are better this time around
*** His favorite characters in the movie – hint, they’re voiced by Brad Pitt and Matt Damon
*** The many messages of the movie
*** From “Happy Feet” to hairy feet, Wood gives us a hint of what’s to come in “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey”

Transcripts / Production notes / Scripts
Mumble, The Master of Tap, has a problem because his tiny son, Erik, is choreo-phobic. Reluctant to dance, Erik runs away and encounters The Mighty Sven -- a penguin who can fly! Mumble has no hope of competing with this charismatic new role model. But things get worse when the world is shaken by powerful forces. Erik learns of his father's "guts and grit" as Mumble brings together the penguin nations and all manner of fabulous creatures -- from tiny Krill to giant Elephant Seals -- to put things right.
