Miranda Otto interview (The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim)

National treasure Miranda Otto is here to talk about her new film The War of the Rohirrim. The anime adventure expands JRR Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings with a story about Helm Hammerhand and the battle to save his people at the fortress that would come to be known as Helm's Deep. In a special Popcorn Podcast chat, Otto shares what it was like to revisit her iconic character Éowyn, her admiration of Hera’s strong female voice and reveals what it would take for her to return in a live action LOTR film.More Popcorn: Discover more about The War of the Rohirrim with the film's co-writers Arty Papageorgiou and Phoebe GittinsKnow someone who loves movies?

The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim writers interview

Venture to Middle Earth with Popcorn Podcast and The War of the Rohirrim co-writers Arty Papageorgiou and Phoebe Gittins. The duo takes us behind the scenes of their new original film that reawakens JRR Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings in a way we haven’t seen before – as anime – with a story inspired by part of an appendix Tolkien wrote detailing the history of Rohan’s rulers. In our chat, we discover how Papageorgiou and Gittins convinced Miranda Otto to reprise her role as Eowyn; why hero Hera is so much more than a warrior princess; and why anime was the only approach to do this epic adventure justice – plus, stick around for a tease about their highly-anticipated next project, The Hunt For Gollum.More popcorn: Miranda Otto, aka Éowyn, talks The War Of The Rohirrim and LOTRKnow someone who loves movies?
