MTV Hobbit Dream cast
Thranduil
Book Says: King of the Silvans, Thranduil leads the Elves of Mirkwood. He imprisons the dwarves when they trespass through his forest, and then demands a share of Smaug's bounty once the dragon is defeated. He is described as having blond hair ... just like his son Legolas.
We Say: If Orlando Bloom doesn't come back for at least a background cameo, we give up. Naturally distrustful of dwarves, Thranduil can be spiteful and terse - but he still possesses the wisdom of his kin. Ideally, the actor cast would be somewhat regal, someone we believe capable of great power but also great benevolence. Ideally, that actor would be somewhat similar in speech and appearance to Orlando Bloom. Ideally, that actor would be David Bowie.
Alternates: Orlando Bloom's old man? Yeah, Stellan Skarsgård has done that pretty well before.
Oh, and Jason Isaacs as Smaug voice *___*
I don't know if that makes me Happy or Sad.... mmmm Orlando... Bowie... XD sooo good!. Happy!
