| IMDb | Profile |
Sir Ian Barry Mune (b. 1941) played a bounder (specifically, the one whose head was cut off by a Ringwraith) in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. He also served as an additional second unit director; he describes one of his works as "[i]t was the bit where the hobbits were being dragged from the burning tavern by the orcs"[1], which made it into the trailer for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. It is unclear as to what scene he is referring; no scene matching his description is in the trailer. He could be referring to a scene shot for the The Mirror of Galadriel scene in The Fellowship of the Ring.
In June 2007, he and 14 other actors filed a lawsuit against New Line Cinema over merchandising royalties.[1] The action was settled out of court in October 2008.[2]
Quotes
There were three grades of rubber feet - there were the Cadillacs (for the stars), Fords for the smaller parts and the extras had Fiats. It depended on how long you had to wear them for. [...] By the time it was all over my feet were awash, and so very, very sore.
