The members of the Fellowship got a small tattoo of the word “nine” spelled out in Tengwar, which is the Elvish script created by Tolkien. They got it at a tattoo parlor in Wellington, New Zealand, to commemorate the experience of the movie.

Elijah Wood’s tattoo is on his lower stomach. Sean Astin and Billy Boyd have the tattoo on their ankles (to commemorate all those hours in the hobbit feet). Orlando Bloom has his on his forearm (his tattoo is visible in some scenes in Pirates of the Caribbean). Viggo Mortensen’s, Ian McKellen’s, Dominique Monaghan’s and Sean Bean’s are on their shoulders.

The ninth member, John Rhys-Davies, declined and sent his stunt double in his place.

Perfect cast is perfect
