For Peter Jackson\u2019s Lord of the Rings trilogy<\/a>, screenwriter Philippa Boyens, Jackson, and Fran Walsh took on the task of translating three expansive novels into three live-action movies. With the anime movie The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim<\/em><\/a>, Boyens and her co-writers took on a radically different challenge: expanding two pages of summary into one two-hour animated film. <\/p>\n

Polygon sat down with Boyens to discuss adapting the world of Middle-earth to another medium and what she learned about screenwriting, moviemaking, and J.R.R. Tolkien himself on The War of the Rohirrim<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Boyens says she learned one important thing from a letter Tolkien wrote to his son, editor, and archivist, Christopher Tolkien, that gave her a new appreciation for the professor. \u201cHe was talking about how some stories [in his Middle-earth legendarium] are meant to be left untold, as if they’re there to be explored. [\u2026] He, I think, was perhaps unafraid of the idea that he could leave some stories untold. And that they might be filled out \u2014 or excavated, perhaps, is a better term \u2014 by other minds was interesting, especially the way he put it.\u201d <\/p>\n

That perspective is particularly pertinent to The War of the Rohirrim<\/em>, which is based on a story Tolkien only loosely described. The War of the Rohirrim<\/em>, directed by Kenji Kamiyama (Blade Runner: Black Lotus<\/em><\/a>) and produced by Sola Digital Arts for Warner Bros. Animation, takes place 250 years before Frodo and the Ring Quest<\/a>, and concerns the Rohirrim, a horse-loving people heavily influenced by ancient Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian culture, topics near and dear to Tolkien\u2019s heart.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For the movie, Boyens and her co-writers adapted the story of the Rohirric king Helm Hammerhand, which is found in a more general summary of Middle-earth\u2019s royal lines that Tolkien wrote for the back-matter of The Return of the King<\/em>. War of the Rohirrim<\/em>\u2019s script turns Helm\u2019s unnamed daughter into the protagonist, which certainly qualifies as \u201cfilling out\u201d or \u201cexcavating\u201d Tolkien\u2019s writing.<\/p>\n

The inciting incident of Helm\u2019s downfall comes when he rejects a rival lord\u2019s petition to join his son, Wulf, and Helm\u2019s daughter in marriage. But through all the tragedy that follows, in which Wulf seeks revenge on Helm\u2019s line and the throne of Rohan, Tolkien never mentions Helm\u2019s daughter again. He never reveals whether she survived the fate that befell the rest of her family, and he never even gives her name. She simply disappears from the story once Helm refuses to wed her to Wulf. <\/p>\n

To flesh out that daughter\u2019s story, Boyens and her collaborators looked to historical and literary sources that they knew Tolkien would have been familiar with, like the historical \u00c6thelfl\u00e6d \u2014 daughter of Alfred the Great, first king of the Anglo-Saxons<\/a> \u2014 who ruled the English kingdom of Mercia in the early 10th century.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cShe’s called the Lady of the Mercians,\u201d Boyens said, \u201cand of course that’s very much [Tolkien\u2019s] neighborhood, so to speak. So I couldn’t help but think, Of course he would know of her<\/em>, this daughter of Alfred the Great who defended her people.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Another Rohan inspiration for Tolkien would likely have been the epic of Beowulf<\/em>, of which he was considered a pivotal scholar and translator. \u201cYesterday I was up in Oxford,\u201d Boyens said, \u201cand I spoke at Merton College<\/a> amongst this wealth of real knowledge \u2014 real experts, true experts of the professor \u2014 and someone brought up that comparison between the story of Helm and Beowulf, and there is a lot in there. [\u2026] I think certainly, [they share] the flawed central character, the almost overreaching nature of Helm and Beowulf potentially, but also their heroic redemption.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But Boyens cautioned that, in her experience, \u201calthough [Tokien] based the Rohirrim somewhat on Anglo-Saxon culture and his own roots, I think that there was another flavor in there to them that was, inherently and intrinsically, purely Rohirric. As much as we did use some sources from some of the histories from Anglo-Saxon culture to flesh out the storytelling, you always begin to travel back to Professor Tolkien’s work and realize, No, this is a culture in and of itself, with its own traditions<\/em>. Even though we’re only dealing with a couple of pages in [The Return of the King<\/em>] for the story, per se, there’s a wealth of history of the Rohirric culture that we could go into that he wrote about.\u201d <\/p>\n

Unlike its live-action predecessor movies, Boyens\u2019 War of the Rohirrim<\/em> doesn\u2019t have a wide-ranging Ring Quest to follow. So its two-hour length (snappy, compared to the three-hours-each Lord of the Rings trilogy) spends a lot of time with its characters, and themes of loyalty, betrayal, and revenge. In Boyens\u2019 estimation, that combination of epic action with personal focus was a perfect fit for War of the Rohirrim<\/em>\u2019s anime style and Kamiyama\u2019s directorship. <\/p>\n

\u201cThere’s a great tradition within anime \u2014 and also [when] you look to the great Japanese filmmakers, obviously, like Kurosawa, for example \u2014 where an epic nature is inherently in the storytelling,\u201d Boyens said. \u201cBut also, there’s a way in which they’re able to collapse and condense, almost in a claustrophobic way. The central conflict, even within characters themselves, begins to inform the storytelling more and more and more. Something that stood out [to us] was, You know what? This is kind of the perfect story to tell in anime form<\/em>, of all the Tolkien stories.\u201d <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Boyens enjoyed embracing a slower rhythm for Rohirrim<\/em> as well. \u201cThe natural pace of anime is going to be different, and rest in certain moments, especially on particular shots. The cutting is different, but I kind of like that. I do feel like sometimes, especially in films these days, it’s almost assaultive, the way in which it comes at you. The relentlessness of that cutting can be a little bit, I don’t know. Yeah, like I said, assaultive \u2014 I’m not even sure if that’s a word. [laughs<\/em>] If it isn’t, I just made it up. But, if you know what I mean, that ability to just absorb something at a different pace, I actually love that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Boyens doesn\u2019t think that her screenwriting thought process changed much from live action to animation, at least not in the important ways \u2014 with one exception: \u201cThe difference with animation is, you really need to commit to those thoughts. [laughs<\/em>] Because you don’t get a reshoot!\u201d<\/p>\n
