Total Recall (2012 film) Total Recall is a 2012 American science fiction action film directed by Len Wiseman. The screenplay by Kurt Wimmer and Mark Bomback was based on the 1990 film of the same name, which was inspired by the 1966 short story We Can Remember It for You Wholesale by Philip K. Dick.
In the Lord of the Rings film trilogy (2001â2003) directed by Peter Jackson, Aragorn is played by Danish-American actor Viggo Mortensen who took over the role from Stuart Townsend after four days of shooting because Jackson felt Townsend was too young for the role.
His hero for the trilogy was Frodo Baggins, the adopted son of Bilbo. Both hobbits become bearers of the Ring of Power that is central to Tolkien's fantasy world. Extra credit: In the Peter Jackson film versions of The Lord of the Rings, Bilbo appears as an old man and is played by actor Ian Holm. For Jackson's Hobbit films, Bilbo was played by Martin Freeman.
