Bloom Joins ‘Three Musketeers’ Cast
According to reports, Orlando Bloom is joining the ensemble cast of Paul W.S. Anderson‘s The Three Musketeers.
James Corden has also joined the 3D project, which will shoot late this summer for a summer 2011 release. Others in the cast include Logan Lerman, Christoph Waltz, Matthew MacFadyen, Mads Mikkelsen and Milla Jovovich.
Bloom will play the Duke of Buckingham, the arch-nemesis to the Musketeers who is described as “so cool that you can chop him into cubes and serve with vodka,” the Heat Vision blog notes.
Corden is playing the servant Planchet.
The screenplay is adapted from the Alexandre Dumas novel by Andrew Davies and Alex Litvak. Anderson is also producing, along with Impact partner Jeremy Bolt and Robert Kulzer of Constantin.
