Umm.....Orlando Bloom didn't try out for Faramir, his agent called and said that he could have an audition to be Legolas, and that's how it started.....

Orlando auditioned 1st for Faramir

On various sites you'll find confirmation that Orlando did indeed first audition for the role of Faramir. I found this on Yahoo Movies:

quote:
The extensive and selective casting process took place in every English-speaking country. Bloom good-naturedly tried out for the role of Faramir, a character introduced in the second film, The Two Towers (2002). After meeting with the project's director, Peter Jackson, Bloom was not cast as Faramir. Instead, Jackson asked that he read for the part of Legolas Greenleaf, a much more prominent figure who is featured in all three films. The director offered Bloom the role a few weeks later, only two days before the burgeoning star graduated from drama school.

...and what a remarkable Legolas he made wink

Also btw John Rhys-Davis first auditioned for the role of Denethor. Now that would have been very interesting.

He would have made a horrible horrilbe Faramir! No offence...

I could imagine plenty more people playing Aragon confused

But i couldnt imagine anyone else playing Legolas or Gandolf...no way in hell!!

I agree lil, Orlando Bloom was the perfect Leggie and No one can do the Gandalf grunt like Sir Ian Mckellen can. I was certainly happy when I saw Viggo's performance as Aragorn.

Oh yeah absolutey...Viggo did a fenominal job no doubt about it, its just that there could have been a possibility of someone else playing him..unlike Legolas or Gandolf big grin

I like Liv Tyler as Arwen as well...she did a good job! yes
