Orlando Bloom says that, but let’s not forget he reprised the role of Legolas back in 2013 and 2014 during The Hobbit trilogy.
Then again Gandalf actor Ian McKellen confessed he hadn’t gotten a call some time ago, so perhaps this series is avoiding former characters entirely.
That was really only five years ago, so it isn’t that crazy to think Amazon wouldn’t be interested in bringing Bloom back for a smaller role or cameo, especially with him in another one of the Amazon originals.
