Trivia: For anyone curious, the quote "I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be until finally I became that person. Or he became me" was said by Cary Grant - to Pelia, clearly.
Trivia: Prior to this series going into production, HBO greenlit a series called "Bloodmoon." It was set in the Age of Heroes, around 5,000 years before the events of Game of Thrones, and starred Naomi Watts in the lead role. The project was shelved after the pilot was shot.
Trivia: Some fans of the source material expressed outrage over the depiction of the Harfoots being portrayed by black actors, arguing that it did not fit with Tolkien's vision.
