| Qoutes From the God Himself: "I don't care much about the money at all. Frankly, if I get the chance to kiss someone in a movie, they wouldn't need to pay me at all". "Basically, I can say that I came to acting because of the women." - When asked about movie salary. "Legolas' moves are smooth and elegant, like a cat...it's very balletic. It's also bloody hard to do without falling over!" - E!Online Force of the Hobbit. "This is Wellington, man. It's great. I was out surfing in Lyall Bay today." - Commenting on the windy and wet weather at the New Zealand LOTR Premier. "I've grown up here," he said. "And it's been a great place to grow up." - Commenting on living in Wellington during filming of LOTR. The camaraderie involves quite a lot of good-natured ribbing, particularly between Aragorn and Legolas. "We have these digs at each other," explains Orlando Bloom with a laugh. "Viggo will go on about Elves and how they're always doing their nails and brushing their long, blonde hair, and being all prissy. And i just say: Well, at least I'm going to live forever! Got that? LIVE FOREVER!" - From a LOTR guide. Elves are cool, man. The girls have got a bit excited. I spoke to my agent and she says she's wading through the fan mail. We've got bags of it. I got to dress up in funny clothes and run around New Zealand with a bow and arrow for 18 months, how bad could that be? I mean, I have a great job. I get to dress up and become somebody else, especially when it's someone like Legolas, who's this super-cool kind of otherworldly elf. It's, like, I'm lucky, man, so why would I not appreciate that? I was 22, I had two more days left of drama school and it was, like, 'Here, have a career.' Boom. There you go. Aged nine, I had this girlfriend, and we used to have running races in the park to see who would be her boyfriend for the day. I wanted to be like Superman and fly in and rescue her. Once I realised Superman was an actor, I thought, "That's for me." I got into acting for the women. Quotes about Orlando: Well it is a spectacular debut, and he's got fans all over the world, quite rightly, as one of the fellowship. ~ Sir Ian McKellen We tried to cast the most perfect human beings we could find [as elves], like Cate Blanchett and Liv Tyler and Orlando Bloom. ~ Peter Jackson back to Orlando back to main |
