The phantom of the opera and Orlando Bloom?

You're likely thinking of the 2004 film adaptation of "The Phantom of the Opera," where Orlando Bloom played the role of Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny.

Here's the breakdown:

* The Phantom of the Opera: A classic musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on the novel by Gaston Leroux.

* Orlando Bloom: A British actor known for his roles in "Lord of the Rings" and "Pirates of the Caribbean."

* Raoul, Vicomte de Chagny: The love interest of Christine Daaé, the main female character, and a rival to the Phantom.

While Bloom was the Raoul in the movie, the Phantom himself was played by Gerard Butler.
