In addition to reprising the role for the upcoming prequels of The Hobbit, Wood also plays Ryan in the FX television comedy Wilfred (2011) and voices the role of Beck in the Disney XD animated television series Tron: La resistencia (2012).

Born Elijah Jordan Wood on 28 January, 1981, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Wood is the second oldest of three children. Demonstrating a gift for performing at a young age, Wood's natural talent inspired his mother to take him to an International Modeling and Talent Association annual convention in Los Angeles. Soon after, he began to get bookings for small parts on television.

Although he has a small credit in Regreso al futuro II (1989), Wood's first major film role was in Avalon (1990). Following that, Wood became an in-demand child actor, appearing in a number of major films such as Un lugar llamado paraíso (1991), La fuerza de la ilusión (1992) and El buen hijo (1993), in which he co-starred with Macaulay Culkin. This was followed by the first role for which he received top-billing, Un muchacho llamado Norte (1994).

Wood deftly transitioned from child actor into a versatile performer with roles such as the endlessly curious Mikey Carver in Ang Lee's La tormenta de hielo (1997) as well as parts in popcorn flicks like Deep Impact (1998) and The Faculty (1998). But Wood's work in Peter Jackson's film adaptations of J.R.R. Tolkien's El señor de los anillos: La comunidad del anillo (2001), El señor de los anillos: Las dos torres (2002), and El señor de los anillos: El retorno del rey (2003), provided a major boost to his career. The actor followed his work in the astronomically successful trilogy with a broad range of interesting screen roles and voice work, including a supporting role in Michel Gondry's ¡Olvídate de mí! (2004), as well as the part of a sinister mute sociopath in Sin City (2005). His voice work has been featured in such animated films as Happy Feet, rompiendo el hielo (2006) and Número 9 (2009), as well as on television series including Padre Made in USA (2005) and Robot Chicken (2005). Wood also played Ad-Rock in the Beastie Boys' comedic video for Fight for Your Right Revisited (2011).

An avid music fan, Wood founded Simian records and released its first album, New Magnetic Wonder by The Apples in Stereo, in 2007. He is the older brother of actress Hannah Wood. ... (more)

"Zackary: A time-travelling male character who pretends that he doesn't have parents, actually he does have parents he just thinks that it's cooler to be a tragic orphan character. He loves foxes, dragons and other creatures he think would make good parents, even if they are the villain in said adventures, and he tends to willingly get himself into a number of bad situations. He's not a villain, he's just a bit of a character who can't seem to think of anything original in terms of his adventure"
