Mar 21, 2012 · Gandalf had a very great affection for Bilbo, from the hobbit's childhood onwards. His companionship was really necessary for Frodo's sake – it is difficult to imagine a hobbit, even one who had been through Frodo's experiences, being really happy even in an earthly paradise without a companion of his own kind, and Bilbo was the person that ...

Being Stabbed By The Witch King And Poisoned By Shelob Had Lasting Impacts
In addition to getting stabbed by the Witch King of Morgul in The Fellowship Of The Ring, Frodo sustained another dark injury in Return of the King. When Frodo and Samwise Gamgee (Sean Astin) were in the tunnels on their way to Mordor, they had a terrifying confrontation with the giant spider Shelob. They tried to escape her clutches, but Shelob attacked Frodo and used her stinger to poison him. Frodo recovered, and ultimately his injury didn't stop him from destroying the Ring. However, much...
Tolkien's Own Traumatic Experiences May Have Influenced Frodo's End
While it's a common belief among some that the Undying Lands represent Frodo dying and going to Heaven, this isn't the case, as the Undying Lands is an actual place. As the ring-bearer, Frodo, against all odds, completed his mission and didn't die at the end of the trilogy, but instead sailed towards a new chapter in his life. That said, Tolkien has a lot of Christian parallels in his work, and the Undying Lands are still a very clear metaphor for Heaven or the Garden of Eden. In addition to...
The Show Also Cements Frodo As A True Hero
Through Rings of Power's Valinor, Frodo's Lord of the Rings ending is easier to picture for long-time viewers of the franchise. While the show is set thousands of years before the films, the scenes showing the Undying Lands or Valinor in Rings of Power, at long last, give audiencesa visual representation of where Frodo ended up after leaving the Shire. Moreover, as Rings of Power explained why Galadriel was chosen to leave for Valinor, the show also further contextualizes how Frodo Baggins, a...
Frodo Is Given Special Permission Because He Was A Ring-Bearer
The Undying Lands is one of the most mystical and special places in Tolkien's mythology, and a crucial element of it is that it typically only welcomes immortal beings. This creates drama in Peter Jackson's film trilogy, as the elves are leaving Middle-Earth to go there, causing the rift between Aragorn and Arwen. As for Frodo, there's a particular reason why he was allowed there, along with his uncle Bilbo. Frodo was a ring-bearer, and his spirit was damaged by the ringin a way that would be...
Frodo Lives Out His Days In Peace Before Passing Away
While it's never mentioned exactly when Frodo passes away, beings who enter the Undying Lands don't become immortal. The location is referred to as the Undying Lands because the beings who live there are immortal, and their immortality allows them to live in solace away from an ever-changing mortal world. As for Frodo,he slowly recovered from the trauma of his quest, allowing him to live out his remaining time in peace. He may have reunited with his Lord of the Rings companion Samwise Gamgee,...

- Elijah Wood (Frodo) Despite his short stature, the ringbearer Frodo casts a long shadow, and continues to be the role Wood is most identified with. But the onetime child actor hasn’t been resting on his laurels: The very year after the release of Return of the King, Wood appeared in the Oscar-winning film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) as Patrick, who uses the memories of Jim Carrey’s Joel to try to seduce Kate Winslet’s Clementine.
- Sean Astin (Sam) The Goonies star, who in LOTR played Frodo’s loyal gardener turned unlikely hero, followed up the trilogy with a supporting role in Showtime’s postapocalyptic series Jeremiah and a big-screen turn in Adam Sandler-Drew Barrymore rom-com 50 First Dates (2004).
- Ian McKellen (Gandalf) The two-time Oscar nominee (including a nod for supporting actor as the gray-bearded wizard Gandalf in Fellowship of the Ring) may be in his mid-80s now, but age hasn’t slowed him down a bit.
- Viggo Mortensen (Aragorn) Mortensen, who played the heroic ranger Strider turned King Aragorn in the trilogy, followed Return of the King with a not-far-removed role in Hidalgo (2004), as a cowboy in a horse race.
Feb 17, 2013 · Frodo, Bilbo and even Sam have been altered by their contact with the One Ring. They have also performed great deeds. Frodo is specifically given leave to travel to Valinor because of the unhealable wound from the Morgul knife. It is a grace of the Vala to permit them to come to the Undying Lands.

In the films it’s likely a few months to a couple of years. In the books it’s 17 years, and yes, Frodo is 50 by the time he leave the Shite on his quest, and yes, he hasn’t aged a day during that time. That’s why Samwise called him Mr Frodo. He was an elder to him long before.
