Orlando Bloom From Behind
Mon, 17 March 2008 at 12:45 am
Orlando Bloom heads out to Malibu with a mystery male for lunch on Sunday afternoon.
Is it just me or does Orlando look exceptionally happy these days? CoughMirandaKerrCough.
Orly, 31, has been reportedly getting fit to be in the Johnny To-directed kung-fu film, The Red Circle. He’s been receiving martial arts and other types of physical training. Production in Hong Kong begins later this year.

@#59: I can’t read that “ass-behavior” anywhere in this text but maybe that’s just me. Sure there could have been something that went seriously wrong but on the other hand it doesn’t have to be on Orlando’s side.
I will start to scratch my head if he is not starting to shoot anytime soon cause that would mean that there were no schedule-problems but maybe the $$ was not big enough…
It doesn’t help to complain about spilled milk. And “The Red circle” was a great movie and I will give him a chance to ruin it before I definitely say he will.
….he got out because his role was cut I don’t think that is a huge deal.
His choice. He signed up for one thing and then it turned into something else that he didn’t want. If I agree to plan A and then you give me Plan B instead, I feel I have a right to change my mind.
OMG FCUK ME!!!!!!!
Your right.
The fangirlies just don’t want to believe it; they’re just relieved that the VS model affair seems to be over, so they’re willing to forgive and forget and resume worshipping at the temple.
If it were just a schedule conflict, then everyone would be saying it; it does happen all the time–no shame in it. But instead we get the blog entry.
Bloomie’s shot himself in the foot again. Enemies indeed. Amongst people who didn’t hold him in high esteem to begin with; people who are important in the film AND theatre business.
Sad to see, but he is spiralling, and for the usual reasons, even if his fans don’t want to admit it. Some of his fans at least.
Yes, avoiding London at all costs.
Seems he beget quite a few problems for which he doesn’t take responsibility. His rep isn’t going to get any better after this round of sh**e.
show some proof then maybe people will believe it.
You can assume all you want from the blog entry but it is just that
your assumptions.
Maybe more news will follow but until then it is anyone guess
BTW I love the thread on the MK-Soho pics. No one gives a damn for half a day, and then boom! A group of shippers post “omg she’s pretteeee” in a row. Makes me LOL.
Sorry to mention here but I didn’t wanna post there.
Just like a small number of fans assumed a few things about those Atelier pictures a year ago and were shouted out as “crazy to assume” from pictures and tab spin.
Uh-huh.
Sorry honey, but I’m sticking with MY gut instincts when it comes to Bloom– I think he was the ugly misunderstanding behind the pullout too.
Face it. He’s changed–and not for the better.
aww i love him i think him and miranda are a good couple
if they even are
fine. Stick with your gut feeling. But you admitted its just that. No proof yet.
If they changed what was offered in the first place then he has a right to change his mind.
Orlando left An Education due to the fact that it conflicted with the timing of his other movie; Le Cercle Rouge. It has nothing to do with his ego.
Wonder how long before we hear he and his UK management have decided to go their separate ways? He definately has chosen Hollywood and everything that goes with it.
I feel sorry for his old friends and family.
He really has seemed to turn his back on the UK. Too bad. He could still learn a lot from people over there. They just don’t kiss his celebrity ass enough I guess.
I’m not so sure that you’ll see them go separate ways. He took his UK manager with him to the BAFTAs, she also encouraged him to do ‘In Celebration’. On the other hand, I haven’t seen Aleen, his US manager for awhile.
So Valentines Day promo is over, so I guess he’s into the “off-again” segment of his on-again /off-again “relationship”?
Why does he always look happiest during the downtime portion of his relationships?
So he fu/cheats around and renigs on contracts?
Gee. Why don’t I like this new “I’ve turned thirty and won’t be so serious” Bloom so much?
Now I get it. Those two g*d-awful, cheesy, groaners of UNO commercials were really just audition tapes for this kung fu movie?
Groan 3.
Please, oh please. I thought this Red Circle was supposed to be a serious suspense film, not a silent Orlando Bloom and his Eyebrow action film.
@73. That would be a very interesting twist if these commercials and this new asian film were actually generated by his UK team, wouldn’t it? Maybe you’re right and its the Other that will be…whatever.
you know I heard yesterday that the new 2009 Corrola gets like 34mile to the gallon or something like that. Right up there with the pirus anyway.
thought that was interesting since he got so much flack for doing the commercial for that and it wasnt a hybrid but yet it gets better milage then some of the other hybrids
Actually the RED CIRCLE is apparently doubtful to be a kung fu martial arts based movie so people are saying, I agree he seems to be doing a lot of work in HK lately, I’m sure some here would say that maybe the SGI leader is to do with that? I can’t say because I know nothing about that Ikeda man. All I know is Orlando seems famous in Japan, I dont hold out much hope for him being really good in this movie as he seems to act the same in everything, and I can’t see that changing now.
Oh and regardless of whether it is “over” between him and MK, I still dont think he is a GREAT guy anymore, so nah I havent resumed anything , still think the same.
You tossers. You all speculate without knowing c**p. His part in An Education wasn’t cut down - he was already committed to Red Circle and it ended up the training and shooting schedules conflicted. He had hoped to be able to do both, and it didn’t work out. It was always a possibility when he signed for An Education because of the prior commitment. Nick Hormby got his knickers in a twist because of him dropping out and took it public. Classy.
And he spends time in L.A. because that’s where his business is - Hollywood is a company town. You’re a Wall Street banker, you live in NY. A U.S. Senator, you have homes in both DC and your home State.
But then neither explanation would make for juicy gossip and ripping someone apart, would it?
The truth- are you british I recognse 2 Brit words there lol
I agree with you though. People- why care what movie he is doing- he is working, and thats good enough IMO
the truth… LMAO is that supposed to be inside info? It aint everyone knows that already. Everyone is saying the same thing all over his fandom :/
Hollywood is a company town. All actors have to live there to work. Oh, so that’s why I haven’t seen James McAvoy, Keira Knightly, Johnny Depp, Daniel Day-Lewis, Ewan McGregor, Jude Law, Collin Farrell, Ralph Fiennes, Cate Blanchett, Javier Bardem and Kate Winslet in any movies lately. Maybe we need to hook these folks up with a LA realtor so they can get some work.
@#82, you’re absolutely right. I’ve never seen photos of ANY of those people in L.A. Ever.
Just because one sees pap photos of someone in L.A. doesn’t mean they’re there full time. Sheesh.
So we have him dropping out and he’s automatically the bad guy? Nick Hornby can’t possibly be the bad guy in this situation? Are you guys freaking kidding me? You act like a bunch of scorned harpies because he dared to *gasp* act like a normal guy and sleep with a beautiful woman that he liked. Get over yourselves.
Well said.
I love orlando, but he’s wearing girl shoes…I hate girl shoes on guys.
I love the fact that you ex-fans are so damned predictable. If anything happens it HAS to be Orlando’s fault.
Hornby never said that it was Orlando’s misunderstanding, only that there was one. He could be angry at the director for not getting the timing right, and losing a major name for the film. He could have been mad that they butchered his script, changing roles around and making Orlando hate the changes. He could be p!ssed that losing Orlando, means that he lost a chance to open his work to a larger demographic.
We don’t know, yet you automatically rush to make Orlando the bad guy. As others have said, he is nothing but professional in his work, and has NEVER had a rep as being a Diva. Yet you want to hate him so bad, that you make stuff up just to spread your venom.
What we DO know, is that we originally heard that filming would take place during March and April, now the news states that it would film through May. A month is quite a difference. That screams ’scheduling conflict’ to me.
Oh come on ricki, with that then to you Orlando cant possibly be the bad guy tho can he? Think on this Hornby guy is a well respected writer and director, do you HONESTLY think that he is going to make up something, or pretend that he is pissed off just for no reason? Maybe YOU should face that Orlando isnt such a professional guy after all!!
Sleeping with a beautiful woman he liked? FFS we arent kids here, he has prob slept with beautifuller women than plain jane Miranda with the shark nose- he has had one night stands since the age of 16!!!! He has prob slept with near 80 women, Im sure a lot of them were gorgeous- what the hell has that to do with why people are suspect because a respected british writer and director is hinting at Orlando being less that professh!
Orlando is a joke here in the UK its more a case of Orlando who?? Nick Hornby is respected very much so, so I doubt he has just sour grapes that he had another film and couldnt do his- why would this experienced director give a two ton toss about something that apparently “happens all the time” added to that fact that Orlando must have had a “get out cluse” added to that said contract that Hornby himself will have agreed to, so why the hell would he be effed off about that if he knew it might happen anyway?? Think about it thicko!
Or maybe you should face the fact that you lack objectivity and the ability to read. Did I say Orlando isn’t at fault? No because I don’t have all the facts and neither do you. Jealous harpy, jealous harpy, jealous harpy.
Oh and Orlando most probably told them about his other committment, so they knew abotu his schedule before hand, and if they adjusted or changed theirs, then they had to have known it would affect if he could do the film or not. How’s that for logic? Is it hard for you to follow along?
