Dominic Monaghan, 46

No character was insignificant in the Lord of the Rings franchise, and that’s why Dominic Monaghan had to bring his A-game when playing Meriadoc “Merry” Brandybuck. While this is his biggest role but he has had other major roles, including one in the popular series Lost and in 2019’s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

But he has also shifted his focus to more passion projects, one of which was a wildlife show called Wild Things with Dominic Monaghan. In the show, he went to exotic locations in search of unique and dangerous animals. Monaghan is set for a role in an upcoming film called Last Looks.
