RINGERS: LORD OF THE FANS shows how, after 50 years, THE LORD OF THE RINGS continues to spark the minds and hearts of millions. RINGERS explores the real foundations of Middle-earth; a community of true fans who share a common bond. Moving beyond "cult classic" and over several different generations, the film unearths countless people gathered under the banner of "Ringer" - academics, musicians, movie stars, authors, filmmakers, and a plethora of pop junkies. Narrated by Dominic Monaghan, celebrity interviewees include Peter Jackson, Elijah Wood, Ian McKellen, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, Andy Serkis, John Rhys-Davies, John Noble, Philippa Boyens, Barrie Osborne, Clive Barker, and David Carradine. RINGERS carefully pulls away the veil between Tolkien's book and the creations of art, music, and community that have been inspired by it.
