He invested a lot of time in the trilogy
The cast formed a strong bond – as you’d expect. This made final shots for the the last film, The Return of the King, exceptionally hard.
Elijah Wood’s (Frodo Baggins) last shot hit director Peter Jackson the hardest. They were filming a scene from the very end of the film, where Frodo is just finishing up his story.
