Irolas is a Man of Gondor in Minas Tirith. Irolas was invented by Warner Bros. for The Lord of the Rings film series, where he was portrayed by Ian Hughes.
History
Irolas came down to the gate after Faramir had pulled out of Osgiliath, and praised the wisdom of Denethor. Soon after, he saw that wisdom again in play as he had to bring the severely wounded Faramir to his lord. Dumbfounded, Irolas witnessed the total breakdown of Denethor as he ordered everyone to abandon their posts.
Etymology
Irolas is possibly an anagram of the canonical name Iorlas (the same way the character Madril might be derived from Mardil Voronwë).[source?] However, there is no actual background or etymology behind it.[source?]
Inspiration
In the commentary of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (Extended Edition) , it is stated that he was originally to be called Beregond, but as the role was reduced, Peter Jackson saw little use in still calling him Beregond.[source?] On the Decipher Card, Irolas is identified as Imrahil instead.[source?]
