Viggo Mortensen Used A ‘Lord Of The Rings’ Sword In His Latest Film
A handy prop just happened to be laying around.
Mortensen’s latest film is The Dead Don’t Hurt, a Western set in the 1860s that follows free-spirited Vivienne (Vicky Krieps), a Franco-Canadian who falls in love with Holger (Mortensen), a Danish rancher. It was mentioned that in one fantasy sequence, you can see what looks like his sword, Andúril, from Lord of the Rings. But I knew I would have to ask permission because I’m sure somebody would notice it, even if you only see it for a few seconds, it’s not really essential to the scene and certainly not to the movie, it’s just something in passing that you either see or you don’t.”
