Shooting was supposed to start in December, but Ruffalo briefly withdrew from the film following the death of his brother Scott.
The delay meant that James Franco left the cast, but Bloom is standing in as a replacement. Filming begins in LA next week.
Written by Christopher Thornton, Delicious tells the story of a paralysed DJ living on the streets of LA who develops the power to cure the sick. He then decides to use his powers to pursue his rock 'n' roll ambitions. Thornton will play the lead.
Meanwhile, Bloom is cast as a "tough-as-nails" rock frontman, while Laura Linney will play the band's manager, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
