Legolas Is A Late Bloom-er

Even though it was pretty much assumed...It's now all official--Orlando Bloom will return as Legolas in "Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: Part 1/The Hobbit: Part 2".



Jackson via Facebook:

"Ten years ago, Orlando Bloom created an iconic character with his portrayal of Legolas. I'm excited to announce today that we'll be revisiting Middle Earth with him once more. I’m thrilled to be working with Orlando again. Funny thing is, I look older—and he doesn’t! I guess that's why he makes such a wonderful elf."

Martin Freeman Stephen Fry, Ryan Gage Conan Stevens Cate Blanchett, Hugo Weaving Dean O'Gorman, Elijah Wood, Ian Holm, David Tennant, Lee Pace Bret McKenzie Ian McKellen, and Christopher Lee co star. While Benedict Cumberbatch is said to have a role as well. Jackson nor the studio has confirmed that casting. His role is unspecified.
