Lord of the Rings star Elijah Wood claims that young actors in Hollywood are being sexually abused by predatory high-powered 'vipers' working in the industry..
The Hobbit actor, 35, told The Sunday Times that the child abuse is 'probably still happening'.
Shocking allegations that top Hollywood figures have been protecting child abusers have circulated widely in recent years.
Several industry figures have been convicted following claims of sex abuse and former child actors - including The Goonies actor Corey Feldman, 44 - claimed he was 'surrounded' by molesters when he was a teenager. Anne Henry, co-founder of Bizparentz - a group to help young actors - said that Tinseltown is currently sheltering around '100 active abusers'.
Wood, who stars in his new film The Trust told The Sunday Times that his mother had protected him from abuse when he first arrived in Hollywood aged eight.
But he said: 'I've been led down dark paths to realise that these things are probably still happening.' The actor, who played Frodo Baggins in Lord of the Rings, believes that other actors remain in danger. He added: 'If you're innocent, you have very little knowledge of the world and you want to succeed.
'People with parasitic interests will see you as their prey. What upsets me about these situations is that the victims can't speak as loudly as the people in power.'

Prayers up for these poor children. May they be saved from these animals.
Of course, we now have a push to make pedophilia seem normal, so people like this actor will be called names. “Pedophilophobic” seems rather oxymoronic.
Yep
Maybe this man does not want to be the victim of an untimely “accidental”/”suicidal” death.
I don’t think warning people about the dangers in Hollywood warrants as airing grievances
Her last film was in 1949, when she was 21.
He hasn’t been in a big film since 2012.

They're all molested. It is obvious. I will go one further: the stars that tend to be more successful are the stars that put out.
Meg Ryan whored herself at Cannes to wealthy Saudis. I thought every one knew this!
People talk about "stage mothers" but mom often is the protector of the child star. The ones who come out semi-normal are those who had helicopter moms who saw all, knew all and controlled who had access and when they had access to their children.
Right.
I’m saying that in some cases, the allegations are untrue.
I think Elijah has been around long enough to know who is and isn’t a pedophile.
I said that in SOME cases, the allegations are untrue. the film and entertainment industry has its disgruntled employees just like any other industry and sometimes they play dirty...VERY dirty.
