David Wenham

David Wenham: I have a sort of long-term plan to direct. I'm pragmatic about it. I realise I don't need to rush it or force it. I'm becoming a frustrated director, I think, in an actor's body. I would love to direct a feature and have Robert Connolly produce it. That would be really fab. At the moment Robert's working on another film that, all going well, I'll be involved in, in an acting capacity.

David Wenham: (one LOTR) It was daunting when I first arrived because they had been shooting for over a year on principal photography, so I was sort of the new boy on the block, It was really like being the new boy at school and that was rather intimidating at first. It didn't take very long before the passion and the absolutely driving enthusiasm of the crew became infectious. I just got swept along with it

David Wenham: (On LOTR) I'm in parts two and three. I was there for four or five months, which in terms of the whole scale of the thing was a relatively short time. But it was one of those occasions where you pinch yourself and think, "Did I really do that?" It's out of your wildest dreams.
