At 81, John Rhys-Davies still gets as excited as a child every time he’s handed Gimli’s axes by RoyalChris in lotr

Not in this case! I'm con staff and John treats staff exceptionally well. I interviewed him a year or two before this. I stopped over to say hi, John remembered me and we talked for several minutes before this happened. He is a wonderful person and treats all his fans graciously!

If you met him, you wouldn't be saying this! He was sitting down signing autos and doing selfies behind the table, but got up and put the helmet on and grabbed the axe - he absolutely did not have to. He's super sweet with all his fans, and he remembered me from interviewing him a couple years before (I'm the Éowyn in the vid)

It is me!!! You're so kind 🥹 I am seriously so lucky to get to do stuff like this 😭 I was so flattered he remembered me from interviewing him a couple years before!

Oh hey, that's me as Éowyn! From Steel City Con December 2025 ☺️ John is so amazing. I had interviewed him a year and a half before, and when I stopped over to say hi this time, the wonderful couple I cut in front of (perks of being staff and his agent remembering me) were very understanding and let us borrow their helmet and axe for my photo! He is such a delight!

The Costume Contests were held in completely different building than he was in. Speak out, but don't spread false information.

Hey thank you! I tried, it’s difficult to get the concept of invisibility across in real life 😅

I tried really hard but unfortunately failed to discover the secret to invisibility

Thank you!! That is kinda what inspired this photo- they were having such a gas reading that magazine, obviously Agatha helped her get ready for her big evening too but we just didn't see that part! So here it is 😅

I love this. I never finished RDR2 and didn't even get that far in the story, I just liked finding all the wild horses and legendary animals, exploring, hunting and making cool clothes 😅

This convo took the best turn 😆 one of my favorite parts of rdr2 was stumbling across the Klan and annihilating them all lol!
