"Lord of the Rings" stars Elijah Wood, Viggo Mortensen, Dominic Monaghan and Orlando Bloom reunited yesterday, and photos on Instagram show a fun guys' night out.

Monaghan shared pictures on Instagram in which he, Wood, Bloom, Billy Boyd and Mortensen goof around, channeling their "Lord of the Rings" characters. They pretend to hold swords, bows and arrows in the photos, as if poised to return to battle in Middle-earth.

They showed their friendship has withstood the test of time: "The Return of the King," the third installment of the film series, was released in December 2003.
