Another fun/interesting fact: do you know that initially, for the role of
Galadriel, PJ and the other Writers chose Lucy Lawless instead of Cate Blanchett?
Lucy Lawless is a popular New Zealand actress, who is mainly known for having played the part of Xena, the Warrior Princess, in the TV serie of the same name
Furthermore, the actor who plays the part of Celeborn, Marton Csokas, was present too in the Xena serie, playing the part of a War Lord
I like very much Lucy Lawless and absolutely love Xena, as a part of my own childhood; but, knowing how Lucy Lawless acts and what roles she is very good at, I have to say that I'm glad that they eventually have chosen Cate Blanchett for the part (also because Lucy Lawless got pregnant before the start of the shootings for LOTR)
But I'm sure that we would have had a definitely fiercer and more warrior-type display of the Lady of Light.
We could try to imagine how it would have been like
''In time of ancient Valar, Dark Lords and Kings, an Elf in toil cried out for a Hero.
She was Galadriel, a mighty Noldorin Princess, forged in the heat of the War of the Jewels.
The Silmarils, the Love for Valinor, Morgoth...
Her Courage will change Arda''.
