Peter Jackson Confirms Orlando Bloom Will Return for The Hobbit
Peter Jackson doesn't need a press release to announce casting decisions for The Hobbit -- that's what Facebook is for! "Ten years ago, Orlando Bloom created an iconic character with his portrayal of Legolas. I'm excited to announce today that we'll be revisiting Middle Earth with him once more," Jackson wrote on the social networking site. "I'm thrilled to be working with Orlando again. Funny thing is, I look older -- and he doesn't! I guess that's why he makes such a wonderful elf." [Facebook/Peter Jackson]

Love the films and the story, only problem is that Legolas wasn't in The Hobbit. His father was but he had not yet been born/created whatever you would like to call it. Only his name existed. It will be interesting to see how Jackson pulls this one off.
