Charlie might have died, but Dominic didn't!
Dominic Monaghan at a Glance
Dominic Bernard Patrick Monaghan (born 8 December 1976) is an English actor. He has received international attention from playing Merry in Peter Jackson's adaptation of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and for his role as Charlie Pace on the television show Lost. He is currently portraying the character Dr. Simon Campos on FlashForward.
Current Projects
As a grave robber facing his own demise, Dominic's character and partner seek to relieve their souls by confessing their life of sin to a priest. The stories recounted of grave robbery and other such evil doings are the subject of this dark drama.
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Our Dom will be playing the character of Barnell Bohusk, also known as "Beak". He is able to shift into a bird-like character and fly (rather clumsily). His powers are rather odd, but suit the adorable unlucky English charm he exudes.
Pet
Running into an ex can throw just about anyone off their game for a bit, but Seth (played by our very own Dominic) decides to take action. Abducting his ex and storing her in his basement, this psychological thriller showcases the power play that ensues when a man makes his ex a pet.
X-Men Trilogy
X-Men Trilogy (X-Men/ X2 - X-Men United/ X-Men - The Last Stand)
Amazon Price: $12.49 (as of 12/24/2009)![]()
Guess who has been cast in a spin-off movie of this trilogy? Yep, our very own Dominic! Dominic will be playing "Barnell" who has the ability to manipulate energy and electricity. I expect he feels very much at home during the filming of this prequel as it's mostly being shot in Australia and New Zealand (where Lord of the Rings was also filmed), The premiere is scheduled for May 2009.

I think a lot of young kids at school are very conscious of trying to keep credibility in case they kind of stand out in a crowd and get bullied by trying to stay cool and stuff. And my whole thing, all the way through school, was I was just a goof... I didn't care.0 points

5
I was the class clown so I was used to performing and fooling around in front of my friends.0 points

Dominic's Tattoo's
Do you know them all?
Elvish Nine
During the years spent filming for The Lord of the Rings, Dominic had a tattoo placed on his right arm of the number nine, written in Elvish to commemorate the fact that his character was one of the nine involved in the Fellowship of the Ring.
Living is easy with eyes closed
This line from the Beatles song "Strawberry Fields Forever" appears on Dominic's left arm. We can only speculate why that line was so personally significant to be given the high honor of being tatted on this actor's arm. Perhaps he feels some special bond with the band, being originally from England himself and finding fame in the States. Or, perhaps like millions of other Beatles fans across the globe, this line hits home in a unique way and he has chosen to display this deep connection on his arm. Regardless, it is apparent that the line does mean something to Dominic.
Two Stars
The only tattoo image Dominic has on his body is that of two stars, located on his left ankle. What does it mean? Your guess is as good as mine!
Symphony of the Stars by the Beatles
Symphony for the Stars: The Beatles

The Beatles are one of Dominic's all-time favorite bands. In fact, one of the lines on this song is tattooed on his left arm...
