Hugo Weaving has starred in two of the biggest trilogies in recent film history: as Elrond in the award-winning “The Lord of the Rings” films; and as Agent Smith in the highly acclaimed “The Matrix” films. Weaving most recently starred in “V for Vendetta,” opposite Natalie Portman, and produced by the Wachowski brothers, the creators of “The Matrix.”
Weaving is the recipient of three AFI (Australian Film Institute) Best Actor Awards, receiving the first in 1991 for his portrayal of a blind photographer in Jocelyn Moorhouse’s breakthrough feature “Proof.”

He received a nomination in the same category in 1994 for the role of Mitzi Del Bra in Stephan Elliott’s “The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.” Weaving won his second AFI Award in 1998 for his role in “The Interview,” written and directed by Craig Monahan, for which he also received the 1998 Best Actor Award at the World Film Festival in Montreal. In 2005, his role in the critically acclaimed “Little Fish,” opposite Cate Blanchett and Sam Neill, earned Weaving his third AFI Award.

“Happy Feet” marks Weaving’s third collaboration with George Miller, having voiced the character of Rex in the hit family comedy “Babe” and its sequel, “Babe: Pig in the City.” His other film credits include “Peaches,” “Russian Doll,” “The Magic Pudding,” “Strange Planet,” “The Old Man Who Read Love Stories,” “Bedrooms and Hallways,” “True Love and Chaos” and “Exile.”
Additionally, Weaving recently appeared on stage with Cate Blanchett in the Sydney Theatre Company’s production of “Hedda Gabler” at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.
