Orlando Bloom was pissed off with himself when he became famous. The 43-year-old achieved worldwide fame in the early 2000s when he not only starred in the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy, but also appeared in the cinema in the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise.
When successes like “Kingdom of Heaven” and “Elizabethtown” followed in 2005, fame actually became too much for him. “It just happened,” the star recalled to The Hollywood Reporter.
He had a good run
“I had this insane run. I don’t think there are many people who have had a run like this, with two trilogies and Ridley Scott, Cameron Crowe … “, says Orlando Bloom.
But the sudden fame bothered him. “I’ve had enough of the sight of me with all the notoriety that inevitably came with all of these films. I think you destroy yourself to a certain extent. “

No roles for money

He wants to take it easy
He would also like to take the time for his unborn daughter, whom he is currently expecting with his fiancée Katy Perry. That is why he only accepts projects that he is convinced of.
And further: “Now that I will have another baby soon, my time has become so valuable that I only want to do things that challenge me and give me the opportunity to develop myself further, because that is what I care about and that’s why I also love being an actor. “
