Besides Miranda Otto, who narrates “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” as Eowyn, her character from the original “The Lord of the Rings” trilogy, two other fan favorite characters are lending their voices to the original anime feature!
In a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it appearance in the “All New Lord of the Rings Story” featurette for the film, Dominic Monaghan and Billy Boyd, who played Merry and Pippin in the original trilogy, respectively, are seen recording for the anime film, directed by Kenji Kamiyama (the “Blade Runner: Black Lotus” and “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex” TV series).
It has not been disclosed what characters Monaghan and Boyd are voicing, but seeing them in the featurette has made fans even more excited about "The War of the Rohirrim."
