Orlando Bloom makes a splash!

With his rumored fiance Miranda Kerr far far away, Orlando Bloom made a big splash in Marina Del Ray, California earlier today. He was on location of his new movie entitled, The Good Doctor.

Bloom is looking mighty good all wet….

The story centers on a frustrated doctor (Bloom) looking to impress his superiors and colleagues. When his 18-year-old patient, admitted for a kidney infection, provides him with the esteem he so craves, the doctor tampers with her treatment so that she’ll have to stay at the hospital with him. Michael Pena will play an orderly who discovers the doctor’s budding relationship and blackmails him for prescription painkillers. Troy Garity is a successful, self-assured doctor, a counterpoint to Bloom. Courtney Ford is a woman who has eyes for Bloom’s character.

The film is being directed by Lance Daly.

Orlando Bloom begins work on The Good Doctor

Orlando Bloom casually strolls down the street before filming scenes for his latest film “The Good Doctor in Marina Del Ray, California earlier today. Doesn’t he look like a total “good boy” in these shots. I think its the side parted hair do that does it for me!

Bloom plays the role of Dr. Martin Ploeck who has spent his life looking for respect. He meets an 18-year-old patient named Diane who is suffering from a kidney infection, and gets a much-needed boost of self-esteem. However, when her health starts improving, Martin fears losing her, so he begins tampering with her treatment, keeping Diane sick and in the hospital right next to him.

The Good Doctor is being directed by Lance Daly.
