Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring star Orlando Bloom - who played the Legolas Greenleaf in the smash box office hit, was on location at London City Airport last Sunday (September 22). He was filming a scene for his new movie The Calcium Kid - in which he plays a milkman who discovers a unique talent for boxing and soon finds himself facing up to an unbeaten American champion. The 25-year-old braved blustery conditions alongside fellow actors and more than 50 extras - mainly playing journalists crowding a star's limo.

Producer Richard Johns, whose credits include Shadow Of The Vampire, spoke to The Wharf.
