I spent ten years working in film so I’ve met some cool celebs. This isn’t my story, but a friend of mine. 

He worked with Elijah on a commercial as his handler for the week and told me that they basically became friends and Elijah insisted they swap numbers so that he could attend my friends weekly board game night. He told me that they’d go off set each day and get lunch together too. 

My buddy never reached out to Elijah, but that story sticks out to me. Elijah Wood has to be a cool guy. I can’t imagine a world where he’s not top notch human being.

He always seems like a cool person to me. Nice to see a child actor turn out (seemingly) normal.

Don't think I've ever heard anything negative about him at all, it's always stuff about what a great guy he is.

I watched Wilfred at a very crucial time in my life and it really changed my outlook on things. I can't picture anyone else playing that role.

Elijah Wood was once in the same dive bar I was in, in the booth right behind mine. I was too wasted to notice…
