Yes, Orlando Bloom will definitely be back for The Hobbit

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
Though The Hobbit has obviously endured its share of setbacks—if by “its” you’re referring specifically to “Terry Gilliam’s”—Peter Jackson could well be in the clear now that he’s officially confirmed the rumors of Orlando Bloom’s return as Legolas, as everyone knows that Orlando Bloom gives off the scent of burning sage and is often used in smudging ceremonies to clear any lingering malevolent spirits. Jackson made the announcement on his Facebook page, where he noted, “Funny thing is, I look older—and he doesn’t! I guess that’s why he makes such a wonderful elf.” Pull it back, Pete. He already said yes.
