He is the recipient of six Australian Academy of Cinema and Television Arts Awards (AACTA) and has also been recognised as an Honorary Officer of the Order of Australia. Weaving landed his first major role as English cricket captain Douglas Jardine on the Australian television series Bodyline (1984). Continuing to act in Australia, he rose to prominence with his appearances in the films Proof (1991) and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert (1994), winning his first AACTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role with the former. By the turn of the millennium, Weaving achieved international recognition through appearances in mainstream American productions. His most notable film roles include Agent Smith in the first three The Matrix films (1999–2003), Elrond in The Lord of the Rings (2001–2003) and The Hobbit (2012–2014) trilogies, the title character in V for Vendetta (2005), and Johann Schmidt / Red Skull in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film Captain America: The First Avenger (2011). In addition to his live action appearances, Weaving has had several voice over roles, including in the films Babe (1995), Happy Feet (2006) and Happy Feet Two (2011), and the Transformers series as Megatron (2007–2011).

The champion Prince of Eternia, is ready for a newer more big budget film right now. But wouldn't it would be cool to make a He-Man movie trilogy 20-25 years ago (not counting that cheese fest that Cannon Films made in 1987). I'm here to cast a good He-Man film series that doesn't include the following; Dolph Lundergen, a star from TV's "Friends" (just like "Lost in Space"), having it mostly set on Earth, a final showdown that completely ran out of budget and time, and less characters from the cartoon. The Eternian gods are smiling upon this one; once Ron Howard ("The Grinch", "Willow") is in the director's chair with his Imagine Entertainment producing these flick, James Horner ("The Mask of Zorro") doing the epic music score, as well as those ILM and Weta FX guru's handling all the stuff. We're saying "HEYEAYEAYEA" on this one here, folks!
