He was in the blockbuster Deep Impact, the master-piece The Ice Storm and played opposite Mel Gibson, Kevin Costner and Bruce Willis. He just turned 18, but as an actor he's already come to his decennial lustrum. Elijah Wood dropped in on Amsterdam to promote his new movie "The Faculty". Did you have a nice brithday party? "It was my first suprise party. Terrific. My best friends ordered my favorite food. And that is a barbecue from Austin, Texas, where we shot the Faculty. There's this place where you can order spare ribs and send them to LA by air mail. You just have to heat it up..." Casey, your character in The Faculty is just as in Deep Impact and The Ice Storm a nerd. Are you an outcast in real life? (long break) "I don't feel at ease when I'm around people my age. Most of the time I can get along with adults a lot better. It figures, because I've been working with adults ever since I was eight years old. I'm interested in other things than people of my age. If I went to highschool, just like Casey -- I always got tutored on the set -- I'd probably be a loner as well. Or maybe I would have chosen for that. A voluntary outcast." Nothing in common with people your age? What about your collection of Star Wars action figures? "I'm a Star Wars fan. That new battle-droid: extremely cool! I'm trying to keep up with the merchandise flood, but it's not that easy. They come out really fast. But I'm trying." Is there a film coming that's going to deliver an Elijah Wood action figure? "Not in the near future, no. It would be fun, though, a figure of me next to Luke Skywalker. I'd do anything to play in one of the new Star Wars episodes. It seems that Annakin Skywalker will be a couple of years older in the next films, so who knows..." In The Good Son you co-starred next to Macaulay Culkin. Why did he fail and did you succeed? "I mainly played in movies for grown-ups. Macaulay on the contrary, starred in kid's movies. That's the only thing he did: kid's movies. It's hard to outgrow the status of kid star. He had the disadvantage of becoming famous real fast. With me, it was going gradual, with every film a little bit more. And I guess he had a lot of family problems at that time. You do need a lot of luck anyway. Because no-one knows if a movie works, or how it works." Which character of South Park would you like to be most? "Cartman! Eric Cartman rules!" What movie did you think was worse: Deep Impact or Armageddon? "I haven't seen Armageddon. Some people say Deep Impact was the best. But other friends say that about Armageddon." What's the worst movie of all times? "Godzilla. Godzilla sucks in every way." |
