How many of you actually ended up doing something that you dreamed of? Very few, isn’t it? And even if you do, it is not exactly what you wanted. But Robert Aramayo is doing exactly what he used to dream of. How? You are going to find out the whole.
Let me clear things out first. For those who don’t know who Robert Aramayo is, he is Elrond in “The Lord of the Rings.”

Yes, that character. Well, I will not talk about the character and his impact, as you guys know it better than me. I will only bring out the unseen side of his story and talk about what little Robert wanted.
The best part about his story is that he revealed everything right after achieving his dreams which makes it more mind-blowing.
I think you have already guessed it. Yes, I’m talking about his acting career. Now, you must be thinking, who does not want to become an actor and famous? Moreover, there are thousands of people dreaming about the same thing. What’s so special about it?
There is something special about it because I’m not talking about his entire acting career but something in particular. Let’s dive deep into it.
What was His Dream?
His dream was to be a part of “The Lord of the Rings.” The best part is he exactly wanted to play the character of “ Elrond.” Sounds unrealistic, right? But it is true.
Since his very childhood, Robert Aramayo has wanted to act in the series that he grew up watching. Yes, you might not know, but “The Lord of the Rings” is not something new.
The first part came in 2001. Robert, on the other hand, as a young actor, grew up watching this series. Moreover, he admired the character of Elrond.
We all must agree on the fact that we used to dream about being the characters or the heroes we grew up watching. Some wanted to have superpowers and save the world, and some wanted to live in a world of fantasy.
No matter what you say, this is only possible in the acting world. Why? Because it has no boundaries. Everything is possible.
Why is It So Special?
Dreaming about superheroes and getting a chance to act as a superhero is a different thing. But getting the chance to play the exact same character is more than just a coincidence.
In a recent interview, he shared how special and extraordinary the experience was and how overwhelmed he felt while playing the character of Elrond.
In addition, the entire cast was googling their roles before things were pretty different.
Moreover, it is not just about the character that fills Robert Aramayo with excitement.
Apart from being a fan of the character, he is a fan of the entire concept of middle earth. An entirely different world with thousands of exotic animals and how beautifully they communicate differently.
Though a lot of people say that imaginary world movies are not that special because they are not real. But what about the actors? They are real, and they act in a world that does not even exist!
It takes a lot more effort than usual.
Ending Words
So, next time you hear an actor saying that they are living their dream, find out which dream they are talking about. Is it just the acting career or something special?
Robert’s story is not only about him but about all the other actors who are known for playing a particular character or being a part of a particular series, and people just cannot get them out of their minds, just like Alexander Calvert in “Supernatural.”
Moreover, these characters are not only our free time but someone’s childhood or dream.
