Elijah Wood on READY OR NOT, LORD OF THE RINGS, THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM, THE FACULTY, & more!

Elijah Wood has been a part of our lives for all of his life. Before he was even a teenager he'd worked with the likes of David Fincher and Robert Zemeckis and in the decades since has become a permanent part of pop culture history thanks to his role in THE LORD OF THE RINGS. Now Elijah, always a big-time genre fan, is mixing it up in READY OR NOT 2 and seems poised to make a return to the shire in THE HUNT FOR GOLLUM. He joins Josh to talk about it all.
