[MARC] Viggo Mortensen: Going for gold: Mortensen was 43 when he landed the role of Aragorn in The Lord of the Rings, ending a long stint on the supporting actors' bench (The Indian Runner, Carlito's Way, Portrait of a Lady), but his choices since then - including a previous film with Cronenberg, A History of Violence - have shown a taste for the unexpected and small-scale. He likes the freedom that comes with limited budgets, where the directors tend to be "left more in peace"

[Film School Rejects] Oscar Week: Best Actor in a Leading Role: Despite the fact that Viggo Mortensen has appeared in a number of noteworthy and impressive roles, including his three-film stint as Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings trilogy and his chilling portrayal of Tom Stall in A History of Violence, this is in fact the first Academy Award nomination that Mortensen has ever received. From all accounts, Mortensens portrayal of Nikolai, the ambitious driver and henchman of a Russian mobster who favors him over his own son, is outstanding”a chilling rendition in which Mortensen has so completely transformed himself according to his role as to leave him barely recognizable as the same actor who appeared in Hidalgo (2004).
[All News] Fan Rant: Viggo Mortensen is Nominated, World Fails to Notice: On his website, Perceval Press, Mortensen wrote: “As the British Academy of Film and Television Arts award ceremony is this Sunday in London, and the movie Eastern Promises is nominated for Best British Film, I take this opportunity to thank and salute the incomparable David Cronenberg and his entire team for the beautiful professional work done to tell this story. Since our movie unfortunately did not receive (much deserved, in my opinion) nominations for Directing or Best Picture from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (Oscars), this seems like an appropriate moment to say goodbye and wish continued good travelling to all involved.

[passionforcinema] Sams Oscar Report Sun, 24 Feb 2008: Viggo Mortensen isnt in “Lord Of The Rings” now, so he really has to perform, but his picture title is vague. I dont think Viggos image can match the intensity of Daniel Day-Lewis, whose picture title promises quite a lot.
[MTV Movies Blog] Elijah Wood Calls Guillermo Del Toro Perfect for ”Hobbit: I’m a little scared with respect to how Elijah Wood or Sean Astin are going to re-appear in The Hobbit, since according to the original Tolkien story line their characters aren’t even supposed to be born yet! And though my memory might be failing me, I’m rather certain that both Viggo (as Aragorn) and Cate (as Galadriel) would also be a stretch, since I don’t recall either actually appearing in any live-action scenes within the original story (i.e The Hobbit.) And come to think of it, I don’t recall Legolas playing any role whatsoever;
