The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring introduces audiences to the titular Fellowship, the band of companions that includes characters like Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Boromir, and Gandalf, who swear themselves to Frodo’s cause.
A new batch of AI-generated art shared by @mordor.tr imagines the The Lord of the Rings cast of characters, including much of the Fellowship, as bandmates. Check out the art below:
The images feature Legolas as singer, Gimli rocking the drums, Arwen on harp, Boromir playing the saxophone, Frodo on keys, Galadriel on bass, Gandalf soulfully playing acoustic guitar, and Elrond on trumpet. Some Elves are also shown enjoying themselves in the audience.

Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings and Hobbit movies are filled with powerful characters that display deadly powers, but who is the strongest?
Fellowship Of The Ring Is The Perfect Introduction To The Lord Of The Rings
How Peter Jackson’s First Installment Gets It Right
Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings books are truly beloved, meaning the pressure was on for Jackson to deliver a worthy adaptation. Not only are the books beloved, but they’re also very dense, filled with a variety of characters, races, locations, and a great deal of Middle-earth history. With The Fellowship of the Ring, however, Jackson proved himself more than up to the task.
The reviews for the first installment in Jackson’s epic The Lord of the Rings trilogy were glowing. The filmmaker puts his own spin on the story and the world, using New Zealand as the backdrop for the dramatic landscapes of Middle-earth, bringing locations like The Shire, Rivendell, and Lothlórien to life in stunning fashion. In addition to the world, the film effectively introduces key characters, making sure to give figures like Frodo (Elijah Wood), Sam (Sean Astin), Pippin (Billy Boyd), Merry (Dominic Monaghan), and Gandalf (Ian McKellen) space during the movie’s first act.
For those unfamiliar with the source material, The Fellowship of the Ring also uses its prologue to communicate crucial information about Sauron and the One Ring itself, helping to establish just how much magic, both light and dark, exists in Middle-earth. In addition to Jackson, however, the cast also helps to make the film the perfect introduction to the franchise, with each of the actors perfect for their respective roles. While it’s now been over 20 years since The Lord of the Rings trilogy concluded, the latest batch of art only affirms that the franchise continues to be beloved.
