Hollywood's Bloom to act in film on Sarajevo siege
Tue Aug 12, 2008 11:39am EDT
By Daria Sito-Sucic

SARAJEVO (Reuters) - Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom said on Tuesday he was stepping aside from the big productions that made him a star to work in a film about life in the Bosnian capital Sarajevo during the 1992-95 siege.

The film is based on the book Fools Rush In by American writer and filmmaker Bill Carter who lived in Sarajevo at the height of the siege. It will be directed by Brazilian director Andrucha Waddington and produced by Elliot Lewitt.

"A film is a very specific and personal account of Bill Carter's experience in Sarajevo during the war and we would very much like to make the film here," the star of the Pirates of the Caribbean and The Lord of the Rings told reporters in Sarajevo.

"This is a departure from the very big Hollywood productions," Bloom said after the film's crew met with the Sarajevo Mayor, who promised financial and other support for the film.

"I'm not in fact playing Bill in this movie but I read the script and the very human story at the very core of this film spoke to me very clearly," he added.

In the book, Carter described his life as an aid worker in besieged Sarajevo in 1993-94 and difficulties and joys he shared with local people trying to preserve the sanity during the 43-month-long shelling of the city by the Bosnian Serb forces.

Bloom declined to provide more details about the film but said he hoped the shooting would start at the end of the year.

"Hopefully, we can get this movie to be made at the end of this year. To come here and shoot would be just wonderful," he said.

Carter made documentary Miss Sarajevo, produced by U2's singer Bono and late Italian tenor Luciano Pavarotti, after he managed to make the first satellite link between Sarajevo and U2's Zooropa tour in 1993.
now this conflicts with TRC, so either he tired of waiting and dropped out, or it got pushed back AGAIN. I almost hope it was the latter and that it eventually will be made with that cast

and this one, that did need translation

In our film citizens of Sarajevo are important
We plan to employ a lot of actors survived to Bosnian war • Since most movies like "Ničiju country," Danisa Tanovića ...

"Fools Rush In," team who includes Bill Carter, Brazilian director Andrucha Waddington, in which the main roles will be interpreted from Hollywood star Orlando Bloom and Liam Neeson, still stay in Sarajevo.

In an interview with Dnevni Avaz director Waddington tell us about the scenario and preparation for filming the movie, which will perhaps happen in our capital city.

"Pokušavamo arrange to shoot the movie here. Part of action film is located in Split, but the majority will take place in Sarajevo. We should filming from the beginning of the next year . Otherwise, this is my first movie in English. I was very affected about scenario, considering that my mother is a refugee from Ukraine, and she was eight years old when she came to Brazil, was in prison camp, so that this issue is very close to me" - says Waddington.

Pojašnjava that "Fools Rush In" is not a classic film about the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina, and that is the story of Sarajevo opsjednutom Told through the prism of human.

"Since the war movies of Sarajevo, most like "Ničiju country," Danisa Tanovića. Our film is different because it is not a war, but talking about people who have passed the war and how they carry the team. In this film the citizens of Sarajevo are very important. This is a great film, but we have a small budget. There are a lot of cheap places in the world where we could shoot, but we want here. We plan to employ a lot of Bosnian actors" - said Waddington.

Independent production

"At the moment we are in the first stage. We have a great desire to shoot here in order to honor Sarajevo and its citizens. This is an independent film production, not an hollwyood thing. All are entered in the project with strašću and are very committed to film. And these stars, like Orlando Bloom and Liam Neeson, this is not a Hollywood movie. A large part of the money actually comes from Europe - highlights the main producer of Elliott Lewitt.

In a visit to the SFF

Team of the film "Fools Rush In" and Hollywood actor Orlando Bloom visited preksinoć directorate and the Sarajevo Film Festival and met with the director Mirsadom Purivatrom, executive director Eminom Ganic and selektoricom Festival Elmom Tataragić. Bloom and the team is interested in preparing to run for 14. SFF, so that they visited some of the festival location, and had a chance to feel part of the atmosphere of popular cinema Ljetnog "Heineken".
This is where it gets confusing, the director says next year, which just leads me to think Orlando is zealous and wants to start soon, Im guessing end of year beginning all the same

But Liam Neeson, I've heard is too old to play Bill, so no idea who he would be but also he was supposed to be TRC, so hmmm.....either TRC is dropped or they are in two more together which I don't mind cause I love Liam.

Ok now go to the pic thread!

Chris & Leah, you two always crack me up!

I seriously hope he's doing double time because it means more movies for us or he could just be done with TRC by then. Either way, i want both. (too much to ask?)
