Orlando Bloom as Legolas? never!

Orlando Bloom thinks he’s too old to return as Legolas in Lord of the Rings series

Even as Lord of the Rings TV show premiers on Amazon Prime, Orlando Bloom, who’d played Legolas in 2014’s The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, simultaneously promotes another Amazon show Carnival Row with Cara Delevinge.

Debuting on August 30, Carnival Row is a fantasy show about magical creatures, with Cara playing a faerie and Orlando, a human detective struggling to coexist with humans. When asked recently if he’d like to be a part of Amazon’s Lord of the Rings, Eonline says, Orlando said, “I mean, I like to think of myself as ageless, but I don’t know where I would fit in that world...They’ve probably got a 19 year-old kid who’s playing that character now.” Cara, sitting beside, just went, “No! No!”
