Elijah Wood made an unexpected return to the Shire in New Zealand's Waikato, stumbling upon a Middle-earth-themed wedding in full swing. In video shared by the Hobbiton Movie Set TikTok, the 44-year-old actor, casually dressed in a windbreaker and jeans, jogs over to congratulate the stunned couple as guests cheer. He poses for photos, with even the officiant asking for a picture. No rings were taken, and the moment, to borrow another character's word, was simply "precious".
