Legolas was portrayed by Orlando Bloom. In the "official movie guide" for The Lord of the Rings, a birthdate for Legolas is set to 87 of the Third Age. This would make him 2931 years old at the time of the War of the Ring.
In "The Hobbit," Legolas is portrayed as being 29 years old.
Gandalf's age is impossible to determine, but he's likely existed for at least 10,000 years, making him much older than Legolas.
It's probably safe to say that Thranduil was over 6500 years old at the time of the Quest of Erebor. Since there is no mention of Legolas in the legendarium prior to the Third Age, I tend to assume that he was not born until after Thranduil succeeded his father Oropher as ruler of the Elves of Greenwood.
She was 2901 years old.
He died at the age of 210, after 122 years as king. The graves of the hobbits Merry and Pippin (who had died in Gondor 58 years earlier) were set beside his. He was succeeded on the throne by his son, Eldarion.
I'm reading the fall of Gondolin and at one point the citizens of the city are fleeing over a plain, they are led by Legolas Greenleaf (page 100 in my book). At the same time the son of Tuor and Idril Eärendil, is 8 years old, he is also the father of Elrond.
He is thought to be over 10,000 years old by the time the War of the Ring takes place, and in all those many long years, he is credited with saving the entire elven race, selflessly putting his own wants and desires aside for the good of all, and of being a vessel through which the divine could communicate with the ...
Elrond is roughly 6,437 years old during The Hobbit and 6,497 in The Lord of the Rings. Elrond is phenomenally old by the time of The Lord of the Rings, but even with his 6,000+ years, he is surprisingly not the oldest elf in Middle-earth.
The oldest elf in the entire Tolkien Legendarium is Ingwë, the High King of the Vanyarin Elves, and the most ancient elf is Imin, one of the fathers of the Elves. It was certainly Cirdan the Shipwright, if you are talking about the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
Legolas was not related to Galadriel at all. Except as they were both elves. Legolas was from the el who had never left Middle-earth to go to Aman Valinor. Galadriel came from Aman where she was born.
Tauriel truly threw a wrench in Legolas' life when he fell in love with her. She was brave, fierce, and a protective leader of the guard. He was meant to be the dutiful son of King Thranduil, but in loving her, he became a stubborn, masterful archer instead.
Long story short, this means that Legolas, as the son of Thranduil, would be a Sindar Elf by blood. However, he (along with the rest of the Fellowship) seems to consider himself a Wood-elf (one of the Silvan Elves), as they are his people.
He's older than Arwen shes 2901. But he's younger than Elladan & Elrohir they're both near 3000. Legolas is 2931.
Gerontius Took reached the impressive age of 130, which made him the oldest Hobbit until his grandson Bilbo Baggins celebrated his 131st Birthday.
According to the movie people, Legolas is 2,931 years old - and according to the book people, Aragorn was born in the year 2931 of the Third Age, meaning that during the quest his birth year is the same number as Legolas's age.
Aragorn is not half Elf, although he is a descendant of Elros, who is half Elf (and the brother of Elrond, the half-Elf who raised him), which explains why Aragorn's life span is unusually long.
Elrond Half-elven is a fictional character in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium. Both of his parents, Eärendil and Elwing, were half-elven, having both Men and Elves as ancestors.
Frodo was born in 1368. When he sets off from the Shire on his journey, he is 50 years old. Samwise Gamgee was born in 1380, making him 12 years younger than Frodo. But it's possible they looked similar in age, since the ring keeps the bearer from aging.
The ages of his characters differ wildly; Gollum is almost 600 years old, while Elrond, the elf, is several thousand years old, and Gandalf the Grey – and later the White – is immortal (for display reasons, both are thus not mentioned here).
Average Elven Lifespan
Elves have the ability to live forever thanks to their immortality. Elves like Elrond, who was over 6000 years old in The Lord of the Rings, are not hard to come by.
So even though giving away this necklace was not Arwen giving away her immortality, it was symbolic of it. Did Arwen lose her immortality? The answer is yes.
Gimli is 139 during the events of The Lord of the Rings. Dwarves have an average lifespan of 250 years; thus, being young and strong, he was selected by Elrond to represent the Dwarves as part of Frodo's company.
