Flight of the Conchords Bret McKenzie recently spoke with
Empire Online about returning to Middle-Earth to reprise his cameo role from The Lord of the Rings Trilogy that fans affectionally called "Figwit".
"It was in Wellington so I could pretty much walk to work. It’s still a small part — I did a couple of days earlier this year — but it was great to get my pointy ears back on. It’s in 3D, so the ears will be extra pointy. You’ll be able to touch the ears."
"I’ve got a proper name this time: Lindir. In the book he was a musical elf. This time, if I make the edit, I'll speak in Elvish. But I don’t sing. They haven’t asked me to do the theme song yet! Maybe this time it’s me and Annie Lennox."
"Ian McKellen, it turns out, is a big fan of Flight Of The Conchords. He and I had a good time on set, coming up with ideas for Hobbit: The Musical. We’re still developing it..."
"Oh yeah. I look like I’m 12. I look much more like a girl in The Hobbit. I look like a hot girl."
