orlando bloom
On January 13th, 1977 in Canterbury Kent, England a sweet-faced baby named Orlando Bloom was born into this world. With his curly dark brown hair and beautiful dark eyes he made his way into the movie business. Orlando Bloom’s first job was as a clay trapper "I set the clay discs the gentlemen would try to shoot. It was fun to be out in the fresh air." At age 15 Orlando moved to London to pursue his acting career at National Youth Theatre. He then got a part on a TV series Casualty as Bit Part “That was my first-ever job, playing a self-mutilator - a guy who cuts himself for attention. It gave me a bit of experience. I remember shooting it in Bristol." He then went to British American Drama Academy, where he had lead role in a Walk In Vienna Woods, an agent noticed him and got him a small role in a movie called Wilde. Although he only had one line he got plenty of movie offers but sadly turned them down. Instead of making movies he chose to further his education at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama "I always planned to go to drama school. I suppose I could have trained in the industry more. But, instead, I chose an environment that would be more conductive to experimenting." At Guildhall, Orlando perfor
Orlando had a good childhood; family, friends, upbringing the whole works. "I grew up in a big house with lots of land around it, so we used to play in the garden." Orlando also had an older sister, named Samantha, who he fought with when he was little. But now they’re starting to get along. "We're just starting to get along a lot better now that we're older. She did get me into clothes at a young age, though. She used to dress me and she'd get stuff from thrift shops. I had loafers and cowboy boots and cowboy shirts and, like, preppie-like check shirts." Sheila (Orlando’s mother) was a language teacher so she entered Orlando into bible reading and poetry reciting competitions. Orlando also had a father, Harry, but he died when Orlando was only 4. Harry, a legendary figure in antiapartheid circles in South Africa, who wrote a famous tome called Episode In The Transvaal, was jailed for his beliefs, and worked alongside Nelson Mandela. “Harry was a great man who died when I was four, and it was as if he'd done his job and then left the world.” Orlando wanted to become an actor at a young age. When he realized superman wasn’t real he thought that maybe he can do that too, another time was when he was 10 and his girlfriend was fonder of a character on TV than she was of him. At age 14 he got into sex, but now prefers love over lust. Orlando took several offers that were offered to him after seeing The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Ridley Scott signed on Orlando to play Private 1st class Todd Blackburn in Black Hawk Down; Orlando had picked up a southern American accent, shaved his head, and attended a Georgian boot camp. Orlando Bloom describes himself as an “adrenaline junkie”; after all he enjoys snowboarding, skydiving, bung
