Because he plays Gollum in the three Lord of the Rings films! Andy doesnt appear in the film, but he really was acting the part. When they were filming, he wore a special suit and computers followed his movements. Then Gollum replaced Andy! When he was practising his lines, his pet cat started making a strange noise. Andy copied it, and created Gollums voice! It wasnt easy, and every day he drank a special drink to help his voice. Gollum was his most unusual part, and probably one of the most difficult.
