Interview with Lee Pace

There's a fantastic interview with Lee Pace about his part as Thranduil in the upcoming The Hobbit movie: link. It's amazing to read his thoughts on the elves in general and Thranduil in particular. I loved this quote:

The elves are not like people, they're more like tigers and blizzards and old, old trees. That's what they are. And Orlando [Bloom] reminded me of this when he came back to shoot this time. He was like - "The elves are always different. They are different than the way we think." That helps a lot, to think that, you know, the little ways that I think is not the way a 3.000-year-old elf lord thinks. He understands love differently, he understands life differently.

I really can't wait for his take on the part. He seems to understand his character perfectly.
