Orlando Bloom Set to Return as Legolas in The Hobbit?

In January rumors circulated that Orlando Bloom was going to reprise his role as Legolas in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit.  What was most shocking about this was that he was reportedly going to get paid $1 million to appear in the film for less than 2 minutes – not a bad deal if I do say so myself!  Nothing has been confirmed, but judging by what the first Lord Of The Rings trilogies made, I’m sure they can afford a little eye candy in the form of Mr. Bloom.  I just love those lavender eyes and long blonde hair!

The new father was recently quoted as saying, “ I can’t really talk too much about it because it’s still sort of in the ether. But I would love to go back to work with Peter Jackson. It would be an honor.”

Sounds to me like it’s in the bag – bring back Legolas!!!
