Actor Orlando Bloom unveils his intentions to assert his Irish ancestry by applying for an EU passport, a decision made after his separation from singer Katy Perry.

In an extraordinary turn of events, actor Orlando Bloom has undergone a significant transformation for his role in the upcoming psychological thriller, "The Cut."

The filming of "The Cut" was an unusual process, as it was carried out in reverse chronological order due to Bloom's weight loss. The actor, who plays a retired Irish boxer trying to rediscover his form, lost a considerable amount of weight for the role. Last month, Bloom revealed that he had been eating only tuna and cucumber for the last three weeks as part of his drastic weight loss regime.

Bloom's nutritionist was recommended by one of his agents who had worked with Christian Bale, another actor known for his dramatic transformations for film roles.

On St Patrick's Day in 2023, Bloom surprised revellers by belting out a folk tune, showcasing his vocal talents despite the physical demands of his weight loss journey.

Recently, Bloom appeared on "This Morning" to discuss his upcoming role in "The Cut." The interview was conducted by Rylan Clark and Josie Gibson. During the interview, Bloom admitted to having no energy or brain power during the filming of "The Cut," and was mentally and physically drained.

Despite the challenges, Bloom did not recommend the weight loss method to others, stating that it required a great nutritionist and was a challenging experience.

In a more personal note, Bloom split from his fiancée, pop star Katy Perry, in June after nine years together. The name of Bloom's grandfather from Northern Ireland is not publicly disclosed in the available sources.

Orlando Bloom's transformation for "The Cut" serves as a testament to the actor's dedication to his craft and his ability to push boundaries for his roles. The film is set to be released later this year, promising an intriguing and intense performance from the talented actor.
