Bloom, Bosworth in Seasons of Dust
Filed under: Drama, Independent, Casting, Newsstand, Cinematical Indie
Screen Daily reported this morning with great glee that Orlando Bloom is going to be appearing in a movie with ... his real-life girlfriend! Can you stand it? For some reason they're very excited about the relationship between Mr. Bloom and Kate Bosworth, with whom he has agreed to appear in Seasons of Dust, an indie drama written and directed by actor Tim Blake Nelson, and produced by the Coen brothers.The movie is set during the Depression, and tells the story of "a young farm woman forced to go on the run." Bosworth, who will play the central character, read the script shortly after she and Nelson finished their work on Wonderland back in 2003 and, she says, immediately fell in love with it: "It's a woman's journey during the Depression and it's one of the most beautiful scripts I've ever read." Bloom's involvement came about more recently; he'll play "a cowboy who steals from bootleggers" who he describes as "a really charismatic character, a real cowboy who loves to be loved by women." You go with your bad, being loved by women self, Orlando.
Production is expected to begin this summer.

Orlando's one of the biggest Movie Stars on the planet, yet his only contemporary movie (Elizabethtown) was a bomb - is he the go-to guy for any kind of period piece? I've never seen anything like it...

I also think that Kate needs to gain some weight. I know they think they have to be skinny skinny but I personally think that it is nasty. What do you guys think?

I think it's great that they're filming together. Hopefully they'll get to spend some time together, too, like a normal couple!
Orlando is a wonderful, beautiful actor -- I can't wait for 'PotC2'! I think Kate is great (I'm looking forward to Superman), though I would agree that in recent paparazzi pictures she seems to be following the Nicole Richie Tanorexic cue. That's too bad, as she was so adorable in that 'Win a Date' movie!

I also think Kate desperatly NEEDS food. Haven't she seen what happens when someone gets too skinny? They turn into Lindsay Lohan and hate/is hated by more than half of Hollywood

First of all--elizabethtown may've been a "bomb" commercially speaking for several reasons..none of which have anything to do with Orli's acting. I own this movie and it is awesome. HE can do no wrong. Kate indeed could use some food and a few pounds. I have never seen a movie of hers so I can't comment on the the two but seeing as how they are so in love this chemistry can only translate onto the screen providing all the other theatrical pieces fall into place it should be a success.

bloom is very underated, he was the best thing in ned kelly ,had the hardest role in troy and pulled together the butchred kngdom of heaven single handed, his straight man act in pirates is just whats needed to conterblance johnny as for elizabeth town he provided the most authentic american accent a brit actor has ever delivered, , the new errol flynn , a male maurren o hara , with dumb critics unable to see beyond the good looks but the camera loves him and so do the public , he admits hes learning his craft , orli has legs what him go he'll, be great in seasons they are lucky to get him,
