Orlando Bloom to Strip Off on Stage?  5/24/07

Orlando Bloom looks set to follow in Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe's footsteps - by getting naked on stage.

Bloom makes his West End theatre debut in London this summer (Jul07) in a revival of David Storey's 1969 play In Celebration.

The actor will play one of three brothers returning home for their parents'

40th wedding anniversary in the production, which will be directed by Anna Mackmin.

But following the glowing reviews Radcliffe garnered for stripping off in Equus earlier this year (07), Bloom is keen to reveal more than just his stage talents during the play's run - he's prepared to get naked too.

He says, "There's nothing wrong with a little bit of nudity.

"I'm not sure I'll be getting all my bits and pieces out, though."
