Pregnancy changed Peter Jackson's vision of "Lord of the Rings". Originally, he wanted to cast Lucy Lawless as Galadriel and Uma Thurman as Arwen. Unfortunately, both actresses became pregnant after being asked to read, and the roles were filled in by Cate Blanchett (Galadriel) and Liv Tyler (Arwen), respectively. Uma Thurman was also considered for to play Eowyn in later installments, but Miranda Otto landed that role.
