Another Kingdom Update

A short but spoiler scene report from the Ridley Scott flick has gone up at Orlando Bloom Multimedia, here's a glimpse:

"About the ending of the shooting in Loarre yesterday, January 20th, the local papers from Alto Aragn were reporting that Ridley Scott had reached the middle of the filming in Huesca, which means that he still has a couple of days to go. It is believed that the cast will remain in Loarre until the end of the week.

Yesterday, they shot one of the most dangerous scenes filmed so far in Loarre: it shows the moment when Balian falls into the forge and burns alive while his workshop burns up around him. It seems that Orlando Bloom wanted to play the scene himself (with all the necessary security measures and firemen, emergency crew, fireproof clothing and so on) but Ridley Scott insisted the scene to be performed by a stuntman, to which Orlando agreed in the end (he must have remembered Legolas little accidents while shooting Lord of the Rings).

The scene came out perfect, according to the informing sources. Due to the difficulty level of this part of the film, the crew in Loarre started shooting about noon and finished close to midnight."
