Fans Call for Viggo Mortensen to Reprise Aragorn Role in New Movie
It’s an exciting time to be a Lord of the Rings fan as fans are calling for Viggo Mortensen to reprise his role as Aragorn in the fantasy world. With The Rings Of Power Season 2 and a new LOTR movie in the works, the anticipation is high. Mortensen recently took up Aragorn’s sword, Andúril, for his latest movie, The Dead Don’t Hurt, sparking hope for more of the great warrior on screen.
After keeping Andúril safe for over 20 years since his final LOTR movie, Mortensen incorporated the iconic sword into a fantasy sequence in his new Western film. He sought permission from Peter Jackson and the movie company, who both approved of the homage. The Dead Don’t Hurt, now in theaters, was also written, produced, and scored by Mortensen.
While Mortensen has proven himself as a versatile actor beyond Aragorn, fans still want to see him return to Middle-earth. When asked about reprising his role for The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, he expressed interest, but only if it was the right fit for the character.
As fans eagerly await news on Mortensen’s potential return as Aragorn, they can enjoy his latest work in The Dead Don’t Hurt and look forward to more updates on the future of the Lord of the Rings franchise.
