Contact address for VM needed - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I wasn't sure which section to post this in, but here goes:Does anyone know of a contact address for Viggo Mortensen or his agent? I only ask because I want to use a quote of his from the introduction to the Two Towers Illustrated Guide, and I've been told I need to get his permission to do so.If anyone does know how I could contact him (either by ordinary mail or e-mail, I'm not fussed) please either PM me or post here. Thanks in advance!

i would think you'd also need the publisher's permission in any case. They would also be able to provide you with the appropriate way to contact Viggo's agent. As I understand, since his new-found popularity, Viggo no longer responds to fan-mail, (too much volume) so contacting him by direct means would probably not be possible.

I know the agency address that is supplied to send fan mail to if that's any help, though i don't know how practical this will be for proffesional requets. Anyway, here it is:Viggo Mortensen c/o The Rawlins Company 3933 Patrick Henry Place Agoura Hills, CA 91301 I don't think he responds to fan mail anymore but i'm pretty certain he reads th letters, so your request should reach him by this route at the very least. It says on the websites i've found this on that it's better to send a postcard than a letter, because at least then it doesn't seem so much for him to read and you are more likely to get a response. Good luck

I read on his site that he wasnt accepting any fanmail anymore, becuase he is getting so much and cant reply to it all personally, so that is why he isnt accepting anymore. Ill try and find the statement for you.

*sighs*Too bad he's not replying anymore because otherwise I'd be more than tempted to write!
