Wood Excited About Hobbit Role

MTV has posted a brief interview with Elijah Wood were he talks about how excited he is about reprising the role of Frodo Baggins for The Hobbit films that begin production in about a month.

"It's a gift to be able to go back to New Zealand," Wood said. "I mean, it's largely the same crew and the same creative team. It's seven years since we finished on the last film, and it's an opportunity to go back and have a reunion with everyone."

"You know, it's a very small piece, and I think that's the most appropriate," he said of his part in the films. "Obviously Frodo's not alive within the context of the 'Hobbit' piece."
