Irolas Irolas (played by Ian Hughes) is an officer of Minas Tirith who appears after Faramir retreats from Osgiliath. His name is derived from the canonical Iorlas, an uncle of Bergil, a Gondorian boy whom Pippin befriends. Irolas has noticeably blond hair, which suggests that he might be descended from one of the Men of Rhovanion who emigrated to Gondor during the reign of Rómendacil II and after. This character was originally going to be Beregond, Bergil's father, who also befriends Pippin and is instrumental in saving Faramir from Denethor's funeral pyre, but according to the DVD commentary the role was so reduced that they felt it wasn't worth officially naming him "Beregond".
