《Heroes to zeros》

Fame may be fleeting, but when a young Hollywood star is hailed as The Next Big Thing, it seems their career barely outlives a fruitfly. John Patterson now wonder if Orlando Bloom can cut it in the big show. Five films in a row now - the Rings trilogy, Pirates Of The Caribbean and Troy - have featured li'l lipless 'Lando and his chipmunk cheekbones behind either a bow and arrow, a big duelling sword or a set of stupid Spock-ears, swooping into action on a vine or a mainsail or whatever, as the audience of 13-year-old girls who constitute his fanbase titter and swoon with prepubescent, bobbysoxer glee. It's daunting to realise that a young actor can - with no real proof of his talents evident in his work so far - insert himself so deeply into the mechanisms of superstardom without being rumbled by audiences or critics. One wonders what will become of a young man who is the toast of the teen-girl chatboard set once he's stripped of his skinny-Fabio period finery and cast into, say, modern dress, or a non-ensemble part where he has no Depp or McKellen to hide behind. His latest movie, The Calcium Kid, made three years ago and now pulled off some shelf to embarrass him mightily, utterly fails to prove that he can do more than act like the lead in an ambitiously budgeted school play. His first role was in Wilde, as an unnamed "rentboy". Let's hope that's not his future too.
