Elijah's Fears?

Hi I know i'm new to this board but i was just wondering if anyone knows what elijah is scared of? I read somewhere that he thinks we should all face our fears (this was in relation to doing Black and White, entirely improvised which I gather he doesn't much like) and I though it might be interesting to hear any more ideas? Thanks!

i brought this topic up in my LJ around halloween. i don't think i've ever read or heard anything that would indicate what elijah's fears are. it's good to face your fears and i don't think anyone is fearless, so it would be interesting to find this out.

My guess would be that he fears being alone.

i also like to hear what he's scared of. I've never read or heard sth similar. Perhaps someone who get to meet him (perhaps on the DayZero Premiere???) could ask him that (if he spares some time...)?

I think being different, going against the grain of society is the greatest thing in the world.

You know, I get that feeling myself.
I kinda do wonder about this in the sense of his weaknesses, just because, as cheerful as he is, there seems to me to be something not quite right. I don't mean it in a bad way, but, like a missing piece of the puzzle. His taste in music tends to (but not always, certainly) run a little dark, with the smoking and the swearing "fascination", as such. I just get that vibe, you know what I mean?

that would be really interesting to find out if someone could ask him...wish i could lol but if i met him i probably wouldn't be thinking straight enough to remember the question. that's interesting about him maybe fearing loneliness... i myself fear death because its scary to think that life will carry on without you...perhaps he fears this too as he says he loves life? Any thoughts? Thanks for all the replies!

A really interesting question. I've sometimes wondered if he's scared of what some people think of him - wasn't he persuaded to start smoking by someone?  That would kind of link in with some people's theory about him being afraid of being alone - he doesn't want to be left out or isolated. I get the impression he's a very "people" person, which is great (I've got a couple of family members like it), but like most things it has its down side and that's one of them. I don't know enough about his private life to pass comment really, but will be interested to hear what other people think.

I wonder about that façade as well because no one is any one way all the time. I think he’s afraid of disappointing others. I also think he’s afraid of not finding true love (as we all are).

Guess all we can do here is just speculate, as I'm not sure Elijah has ever shared any of his fears with us.
The only thing that's niggling around in my memory (which could be completely wrong) is that I think I read in an interview one time that he is a bit freaked about doing stage work.
I wish he would do it, because I would love to see him portray Hamlet on the stage. Just a dream of mine...

<~~formerly known as Jes85, since when I try to log in it says the name no longer exists, even though it's still listed as a member 
In his book about the making of LOTR, Sean Astin suggests that Elijah's nail-biting and chain smoking are "trying to fill a void". I just wonder what he means by that. I think Elijah is generally a pretty well-adjusted person, but I don't know if he's always as happy as he tries to seem. I remember one interview where the person asked him about his dad and he was trying to say it wasn't a big deal, but his eyes were getting kind of glassy. I would imagine having no relationship with his father had a bigger effect than he likes to let on, and that could account for the void he tries to fill and being afraid of being alone, maybe.
