Sandro Kopp as "Tigrina Caeru"
October 12, 2004

Lord of the Rings actor Sandro Kopp ("Gildor") from New Zealand worked with us for two days as a character model for Caeru Meveny, the charismatic Tigrina. After a months-long casting search to find the right actor for this role, Sandro Kopp is the absolute embodiment of Wraeththu.

Out of the recent shooting, some of which were scenes set in Phaonica, came a series of photos which we hope to publish in as part of our Wraeththu portrait book.

Not only perfect due to his looks, Sandro, who will soon also appear in the fantasy film Chronicles of Narnia, offered a brilliant dramatic performance during the shooting.

Information about the artist and actor can be found online at http://www.sandro-kopp.com and under http://www.sandrokoppofficialfanclub.com.

Sandro will be appearing at Ringcon 2005 in Bonn, Germany, October 29-31; check out http://www.ringcon.de for more information. He'll also be in Manchester, England, for Master of the Rings; information at http://www.autographmania.co.uk.
