Number 50 - Orlando Bloom

"We had our eyes so fixed on Viggo Mortensen when watching Lord Of the Rings, that we completely missed the feisty elf with the bow and arrow, Legolas Greenleaf. Luckily you were fully aware of who he was and that's why the man from Canterbury in England throws himself right into the middle of the list. Already at age 20 the classically trained Bloom was offered lots of movie roles, but turned them all down to spend 3 years in different theatres, after which the director Peter Jackson persuaded him to take part in The Lord Of the Rings- Trilogy.
BONUS: three years ago Orlando Bloom broke his back and was told that he would probably never walk again. 12 days after surgery, he walked out of the hospital on his own."
