Orlando Bloom Will Walk 'Main Street'
Horton Foote's new and final screenplay moves toward production
Orlando Bloom is continuing to line up projects as he has been absent from the big screen since starring in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End in 2007. The latest project is Main Street in which he is joined by Andrew McCarthy, Ellen Burstyn, Patricia Clarkson and Colin Firth.
The film marks Horton Foote's (To Kill a Mockingbird) newest and final screenplay as he died earlier this month of natural causes. John Doyle will be making his directorial debut as the project is expected to begin filming this April.
The drama centers on a group of people in a small town in North Carolina whose lives are shaken up when a stranger arrives. Bloom will play a small-town policeman, while McCarthy will play a Lothario business manager.
On top of this film Bloom is currently filming Sympathy for Delicious with Mark Ruffalo making his directorial debut and he is also set to star in The Cross for Andrew Niccol with Olga Kurylenko and Vincent Cassel joining him. The Cross is set in a border town in the near future. Bloom plays a man seeking to cross a mysterious border, something no one else has achieved; Cassel will play the sentry who wants to stop him.

WHY is this 'actor' still getting work? He has no business in a Horton Foote film. He's lame, he's just a face, he's aging, I had such high hopes for this project but obviously it's just a vehicle now. His manager must have some good contacts to get him work… I just hope he realizes he's out of his league & drops out. He is NOWHERE near the league of the other actors attached to this project.
this guy acts like luke perry lets get luke some work to
this might be good there shoting it down the street from my home..i might go see it…
Hey 'Missy', aren't you just a face too? I mean you aren't the one making or starring in movies, just a random nobody posting your childish rants over the internet. And aren't you aging as well? What is he supposed to never age? lol, grow up and quit posting ignorant stuff on the internet. Your post clearly indicates you have issues. Judgemental nobody.
