"The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" hits theaters in December, but director Peter Jackson is still working on some parts of the film, including reshooting some scenes with one of the movie's stars, Orlando Bloom.

Bloom, who stars in the upcoming Disney film "Pirates of the Carribean," said he had to briefly reprise the role of the Elf Legolas recently as Jackson prepares for the final cut of "Return of the King." That movie is the final installment in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

"I did the reshoots a few weeks ago," Bloom recently told Sci-Fi Wire about his return trip to New Zealand. "(Jackson) loved the audience's reaction in the first movie (to) Leggy running over the back of the cave troll and killing the cave troll, and then in the second movie, sliding down the stairs and jumping (off) the horse. And in the third movie, he's kind of combined a whole load of stuff. So it's like another one of those sort of Leggy moments."

If he were ever given a chance to reshoot scenes from the first two movies, would Bloom take it?

"I've changed so much," he said. "And I thought, oh God, I would have done that different now. What was I thinking? I obviously wasn't. I was so nervous. I'm so tense. There's things like that. But shit, it was an opportunity and I love that character. I tried really hard to get it right, and Pete was amazing and directed me really well, and I feel lucky."

What's next on Bloom's list now that he has both LOTR and "Pirates of the Carribean" under his belt?

"I'm holding out for fucking three guys sitting around a table playing cards," Bloom said. "Not that I'm not grateful for the opportunities and experiences I've had, but I just think it would be good for me to do something like that just to show that I'm not just an action-reaction, one-line man. You know what I mean? There's more to me than that, and hopefully, I can get an opportunity to show that."

"Return of the King" opens Dec. 17.
