Orlando Bloom (48 years old), about the movie that marked his career: “He didn’t want to do it”

Every interpreter with a great career has been part of the distribution of films that, today, would never have done. An example is Orlando Bloom (48)who drags iconic titles such as ‘The Lord of the Rings’, ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ or ‘El Hobbit’. But what if I tell you to be renounced by the most famous film of his career?

I mean neither more nor less than to ‘Troy‘, where he put himself under the orders of Wolfgang Petersen and shared prominence with faces such as Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Diane Kruger, Sean Bean or Rose Byrne. Recall that the British got into the skin of Paris, a Trojan prince who triggers the war after falling in love with Helena (Kruger).

As the artist revealed in ‘Know E their Lines’, an interview channel broadcast by ‘Variety’, the memories he has of the filming of production are not exactly good: “I think I just erased that movie from my mind. Many people love this movie, but for me, play this character was like …”, explained that of Canterbury making it clear that, although “I didn’t want to make the movie” Nor “play this character”, “The movie was great.”

Specifically, Katy Perry’s couple alluded to the scene in which her alter ego was beaten by Menelao (Brendan Gleeson), while he clung to his brother’s leg, Héctor (Bana): “How would he play this character? It was completely completely contrary to everything I felt inside. At one point, it was written that Paris had to crawl on the ground after someone hit him and hold his brother’s leg. I thought: ‘I couldn’t do that,’ “Bloom recalled.

“One of my agents at that time said: ‘But this moment will do everything!’

It is worth mentioning that Bloom has not been the only one who has spoken about the film. Kruger, in 2023, revealed that the recordings became a “circus” due to Pitt’s presence: “The sets were huge, the paparazzi flew in helicopter Waiting for Brad Pitt. It was crazy! “Said the actress, too, to ‘Variety’.
