Elijah Wood Bracing for End of'Rings'

NEW YORK (AP) -- Elijah Wood, star of "The Lord of the Rings" films, is bracing for separation anxiety."The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" opened Wednesday in theaters nationwide. It's the final installment in Peter Jackson's fantasy trilogy based on J.R.R. Tolkien's text. All three films were shot during a 15-month period in New Zealand."When the press is finished and the movies are out, there will be a certain feeling of sadness and separation anxiety," Wood told reporters recently, according to AP Radio. "We're going to have to arrange something for next year to bring us all back together.""The Fellowship of the Ring" was released in 2001, followed by "The Two Towers" in 2002. The films also star Viggo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, Ian McKellen, Sean Astin and Liv Tyler."The fellowship in many ways will carry on for the rest of our lives," said the 22-year-old Wood. "Even after we don't have to be together for the films, I think that we will always know each other and be together in one way or another."
