Quotes:
  • I was told I had to gain a lot of weight because Hobbits are very portly. Peter is forever suggesting I have more food. 'A little more food for Mr. Astin.'
  • Yes, I'm having a really, really good time, I'd say this is the most fun time I've had in my career, in the post-Two-Towers, present-Jeremiah ... along with my wife and kids. I mean, my life is really, knock on wood, is really going well, and I'm enjoying it, and I'm really enjoying the professional experience. I'm really inspired by all the Canadian crew that I'm working with, and giving myself over completely to Joe Straczynski and his imaginative genius is easy to do, and the pace of television I find compelling. Vancouver is a beautiful place to spend time and aesthetically, just the natural environment is beautiful, the people are beautiful, the restaurants, the food is great. I mean, I'm livin' large. That's something for a hobbit to say.
  • I was told I had to gain a lot of weight because Hobbits are very portly. Peter [Jackson] is forever suggesting I have more food. 'A little more food for Mr. Astin.
  • I'd never heard of The Lord of the Rings, actually. So I went to the bookstore and there it was, three shelves of books about Tolkien and Middle-earth, and I was like, 'Holy cow, what else am I missing out on?'

Sean Astin Trivia
  • Eyes are hazel, yet tend to change from brown to green depending on what he wears.
  • While filming The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001), Samwise Gamgee (Sean Astin) ran into a lake to stop Frodo (Elijah Wood). When he did this, he stepped on a piece of glass and had to be rushed to the hospital. He received many stitches to repair the injury.
  • Has three other half brothers: David, Allen and Tom
  • On 4 December 2001, Sean had his image as "Samwise Gamgee" immortalized on a 90 cent New Zealand postage stamp that he shares with Lord of the Rings co-star Elijah Wood ('Frodo Baggins'). However, Sean's last name is spelled incorrectly on the presentation pack of the stamps (Austin instead of Astin).
  • Son of actor John Astin and actress Patty Duke.
