Jackson's girl a red carpet stunner

The wide-eyed child from The Lord of the Rings has blossomed into a red carpet talking point.

Katie Jackson, who played small children in all three Rings movies, accompanied father Sir Peter yesterday on what was her coming-out event.

The 16-year-old quickly caught the eye of the television cameras, and became a hot topic on Twitter. "Katie Jackson looks amazing!" wrote one, while Casey Goranson tweeted: "Katie Jackson has become a beautiful young woman. She's gonna have to take fencing lessons fend off the suitors!"

Katie said she was looking forward to a first glimpse of her dad's movie, after he convinced her to wait for the premiere.

"He wanted it to be completely finished."

She said growing up while her father and mother, Fran Walsh, worked on The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit for years at a time was "incredible".

She got to know Sir Ian McKellen and Elijah Wood when she was only a toddler.

"I'm a big Tolkien fan myself so it's great to have a whole family that are Tolkien-obsessed."

Asked if she had any aspirations of joining her father in the movie industry, she said with a laugh: "You never know. I might carry it on."

Okay, this makes it hit home how long it has actually been. It doesn't seem like that much time has actually passed, even though I know it has.

I know - but look:



Sigh - and I'm sure in all that time I've only grown sideways...
