Haleth was a young boy of Rohan, estimated to be around fourteen-years-old, who is forced to fight at the Battle of Helm's Deep. He is a movie character and doesn't appear in the book.
Portrayal in adaptations
Edit
Haleth is portrayed by Calum Gittins in The Two Towers. He is the son of Háma, a soldier who dies from a Warg attack before arriving at Helm's Deep. Haleth's only appearance is at Helm's Deep, where he has a grim conversation with Aragorn, telling Aragorn that the men believe that they won't survive the night. Aragorn then reassures him, stating that there is always hope. The conversation ends here.
The fate of Haleth is unknown, but it is probable that he died, as did many of the other combatants at Helm's Deep, for he is not seen or heard of again.
It is interesting to note that "Haleth" is the name of the brother of Háma (son of Helm). This could be the reason why Peter Jackson chose this name for the son of Háma (doorward of Meduseld).
