Legolas Loses His Nerve in "The Calcium Kid"
posted on March 25, 2004

From Hello! Magazine: After his worldwide success in Pirates Of The Caribbean and Lord Of The Rings, movie fans are used to seeing Orlando Bloom as the dashing hero in big-budget blockbusters. But the chisel-jawed actor has reinvented himself for his latest flick, in which he plays a nervous everyman facing a rather daunting challenge. In the low-budget movie The Calcium Kid he plays a milkman who, by a bizarre twist of fate, finds himself contesting the world boxing championship... [read full article]

More news on "Elizabethtown"
posted on March 18, 2004

From MTV.com: Next year, [Cameron] Crowe will return with "Elizabethtown," a romantic comedy that will star Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst. Shooting will begin this summer and the film should be in theaters in the summer of 2005. "It's about a guy who, on the eve of an incredible fiasco and failure, decides to kill himself," Crowe said. "[But instead,] he takes a trip back to his old hometown in Kentucky and gets broadsided by life. And laughter ensues." During the film, the misfortune-plagued man, Drew Baylor (played by Bloom), meets a flight attendant named Claire Colburn (Dunst) while trying to fulfill the last wishes of his deceased father. The two fall in love and Baylor discovers a new reason for living. [read full article]


Latest word on "Elizabethtown"
posted on March 17, 2004

From FilmStew: Cameron Crowe's romantic comedy Elizabethtown, starring Kirsten Dunst and Orlando Bloom, will be solo at Paramount, rather than being a Paramount/DreamWorks co-production, as originally intended. No reasons for the split were given, other than that Crowe, who is writing and directing, decided last fall after second-unit shooting to push the start of production back from first quarter 2004. Ashton Kutcher was originally slated to star, but the change in timing forced a replacement, and Bloom was selected. They're hoping to release the film in 2005. Paramount-based Cruise/Wagner is producing the film that is expected to start shooting in July. It's the story of a suicidal man who returns to his small-town Kentucky home after the death of his father.

"Orlando doom"
posted on March 14, 2004

From MegaStar: Ooh, listen carefully. Is that the sound of the world's smallest violin playing for Orlando Bloom? If so, somebody shoot him quick. Earning millions for his movies, being paid to lark about in New Zealand dressed as an elf on horseback, bagging foxy actress Kate Bosworth - call us callous but our sympathy for the wiry woman-pleaser is a little thin on the ground. However, bum-fluffed Bloom appears to be playing the 'poor me' card in a recent TeenHollywood.com interview... [read article]

Orlando is an inspiration to archery
posted on March 2, 2004

From CBBC Newsround: Rings actor Orlando Bloom and his elves have inspired lots of people in the UK to try their hand at archery. Archery clubs around the country have seen more and more people trying out the sport, and some have admitted it's because of the Rings trilogy. Tom Wilson, 12, used to see people firing arrows near his house, but only gave it a go after seeing the film. He added: "It's great fun, I've made some new friends and as I get better I hope I can become more competitive." Club organiser Elaine Nickols said not everyone who tries archery sticks with it, but plenty of people do. "A lot of the youngsters are admitting their interest follows a trip to the cinema to see Lord of the Rings," she said. She added: "What I think is important is that it proves you don't have to be able to run fast or kick a ball hard to be good at a sport."
