How old are the characters from Lord of the Rings at the time of the story

HdR - Sam

Place 12: Sam

Samwise Gamgee, mostly just called Sam, is the son of Bilbo’s gardener, old Otho. In order to finally see elves, whom he has heard so much about, he accompanies Frodo on his journey. There he becomes his most loyal companion. Sam is the only one who accompanies Frodo to Mount Doom.

Even for a hobbit, Sam is extremely peace-loving and content. All the more impressive is how great his influence on the course of history was.

Since hobbits are only considered “adult” at 33, Sam is a young adult.

Character: Sam – 35 years

Actor: Sean Astin – 28 years
