Line 69:
In ''[[The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers|The Two Towers]]'' (2002), Boromir appears in the theatrical version only briefly during the beginning flashback sequence of Gandalf's fight with the Balrog in Moria, and he appears twice in the Extended Edition, both times as flashbacks that were not shown previously in the films. The first is when Faramir remembers finding Boromir's body in the elven boat, washed up on shore, with his horn cloven in two. The second flashback is a considerably lengthier one, and is the only scene of the trilogy where Boromir and Faramir are seen speaking to each other. It takes place just after Boromir has just won a battle in [[Osgiliath]] and just before Boromir leaves for Rivendell at the urging of his father. The two brothers are seen celebrating and laughing before their father speaks to Boromir, and the scene ends with Boromir leaving and saying, "Remember today, little brother" to Faramir. Here Boromir apparently knows that "[[Isildur]]'s Bane" is the One Ring and is chosen specifically by his father, despite his reluctance to go, in response to a summons from [[Elrond]], as [[Rivendell]] is a known location. He is thus aware of the true meaning of the phrase "Isildur's Bane" when he arrives there on horseback.
In ''[[The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King|The Return of the King]]'' (2003), Boromir also appears in the theatrical version during a brief flashback as Pippin remembers his heroic sacrifice. Due to that scene alone, Sean Bean's name and portrait appears in the closing credits of the film. In the Extended Edition of the film, Boromir appears briefly when Denethor looks at Faramir and imagines for a moment that he sees Boromir walking towards him, smiling.
