THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS (2002)
PLOT: Frodo and Sam take Gollum prisoner and continue on to Mordor on the mission to destroy The One Ring. Whilst their former companions Strider, Legolas, Gimli, Merry and Pippin make new allies in the Ents, The Riders of Rohan and the Stewards of Gondor and launch an assault on Isengard. All the while a growing Shadow falls upon Middle-earth as the Dark Lord's Army marches on to Gondor. The War of the Ring has begun. (Written by Paul Twomey)
ORLANDO'S CHARACTER: Orlando plays Legolas Greenleaf, a Sindarin elf prince from Mirkwood. In general, elves are "noble, elegant, magical beings whose time is running out and who seem to possess a bittersweet sense that they are now about to pass into myth. Although they could be slain or die of grief, elves are immortal in that they are not subject to age or disease" (from lordoftherings.net). He is deadly with his trademark weapon, the bow and arrow - he is equally experienced with knives and swords.
