Tolkien Reading Day: Malaysian actors read The Lord Of The Rings

One Ring to rule them all;
One Ring to find them;
One Ring to bring them all;
And in the darkness bind them.

These words, taken from The Fellowship Of The Ring by JRR Tolkien, have set fire to the imagination of millions of readers since they were first published in 1954. This epic fantasy novel was followed by The Two Towers and The Return Of The King, all of which have been adapted into animated movies and feature films.

Now, fans celebrate Tolkien Reading Day every March 25, which marks the day the men, elves, dwarves, wizards and hobbits of Middle-earth defeated the Dark Lord Sauron. So we present to you a Lord Of Rings special featuring Gandalf The Grey, The Lady Galadriel, Samwise Gamgee and Legolas Greenleaf, read by Malaysian actors.

The video stars Zahim Albakri as Gandalf [Gandalf speaks to Frodo about Gollum in The Fellowship Of The Ring], Susan Lankester as Galadriel [Galadriel is tempted by the One Ring in The Fellowship Of The Ring], Tung Jit Yang as Samwise [Samwise encourages Frodo at the battle of Osgiliath in The Two Towers] and Tony Eusoff as Legolas [Legolas’ Song Of The Sea poem in The Return Of The King].
