Elijah Wood Still Mistaken for Spider-Man

It's April 2nd.

Welcome to Entertainment and celebrity news today, powered by AI, I'm Cory with the

story.

Elijah Wood, the 45-year-old actor from the Lord of the Rings films, still gets mixed

up with Toby McGuire all the time.

He spilled the beans on the Happy Sad Confused podcast while chatting about his new movie,

Ready or Not, too, Here I Come.

Turns out, fans always pay him as the guy from Spider-Man.

Wood says it happens pretty often, but he never bothers setting folks straight.

The host joked that maybe people think he's the real Spider-Man, not Toby.

Wood played along, laughing, that he might have it all wrong himself.

Both dudes blew up in those early 2000s blockbusters.

McGuire, now 50, swung into fame as Peter Parker and Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy, then popped

back for Spider-Man, No Way Home, with Tom Holland, and Andrew Garfield.

Wood owned the screen as Frodo Baggins across Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings and

Hobbit movies, diving deep into that middle-earth magic from J.R.R. Tolkien's books.

Even decades later, these mix-ups show how those epic roles stick with us, blurring

lines between hobbits and web-slingers in fans' minds.
