Legolas

Orlando Bloom reprises his role as Legolas from The Lord of the Rings trilogy. He appears in The Desolation of Smaug despite not being present in J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit or last year’s An Unexpected Journey. An Elf of the Woodland Realm, he is the son of Elvenking Thranduil and, since Elves are immortal, it was deemed appropriate by Peter Jackson to include him in the Hobbit trilogy.
