Frodo Baggins is one of the main characters in J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. He is a Hobbit who lives in the Shire and is the cousin of Bilbo, who gives him the One Ring. Frodo starts his mission to destroy the ring by throwing it in Mount Doom in Mordor. He is one of the members of the Fellowship of the Ring along with his friend, Samwise Gamgee, who stays with him until the end of their journey.

He is in many adaptations of Tolkien's books and he was played by Elijah Wood in Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies.[1][2]
