Wood's Uncomfortable Meeting With Nicholson

[Elijah Wood](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/elijah-wood) was shocked when Hollywood hellraiser [Jack Nicholson](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/jack-nicholson) told him he walked out of the final [The Lord Of The Rings](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/the-lord-of-the-rings) movie.

THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING opened in 2003 to glowing reviews and huge box office takings, but Nicholson couldn't sit through the whole movie - and he had no problem letting Wood know.

Wood tells FHM, "I was waiting to present an award, and Jack Nicholson was backstage with [Dustin Hoffman](https://contactmusic.6lgx.com/dustin-hoffman). Jack started talking about Lord Of The Rings. He said, 'God, it's so long. What happened to you at the end?' And I was like, 'Wait a second - you didn't watch the end of the film?'

"He's like, 'No, I was in the car waiting for the kids. There were too many damn endings.' Dustin Hoffman stood there laughing his a\*s off."
