There is a lovely interview with Wolfgang Peterson on BBC FILMS where he talks about the cast of 'Troy'. He has some lovely things to say about Orlando...

QUOTE
Of course Orlando Bloom is another a star on the rise. How did you see him fitting into the part of Paris?

This guy walked into our room, here at The Dorchester, and he had this unbelievable smile on his face and all this black hair and I said, "Who's that?" And they told me that's the guy from The Lord Of The Rings, and I said "Who from The Lord Of The Rings?" I had no idea because I'd seen him with all this long blond hair. But he was so beautiful, young and smiling, and very clever I must tell you - the way he talked about the part of Paris. He absolutely saw that it was a risky part because Paris is a coward. But Paris was also a very famous man and all the girls loved him, because he was such a beautiful young playboy type. So Orlando Bloom for that part? Pretty good. Then later on when I saw downstairs how all these girls were outside the hotel screaming that Orlando is here, I said "OK, I think this is a good choice!" A very good choice.
