A winner of a film for certain. Great cast with a great director.


Christian Bale, soon to be seen as the caped crusader in The Dark Knight, is in talks about donning the jolly Lincoln Green outfit of Robin Hood, where he will be part of a menage a trois between Russell Crowe's Sheriff of Nottingham and Sienna Miller's Maid Marian.

Nothing is signed for Bale, but director Ridley Scott is exceedingly keen to cast him.

Costume fittings begin next week, so he'll be either in or out by then. Vanessa Redgrave and William Hurt are also in discussions about being in the film, which is called Nottingham.

Saoirse Ronan (who appeared with Vanessa in Joe Wright's award-winning film Atonement) will also be in the picture.

If all the casting comes off, it'll be a high-octane ensemble and Scott will be working with a big budget - good news for the British film industry.

x2 on that. He's an excellent actor. The best Batman ever for sure IMO.

This sounds like it's gonna be a great movie. I think he'd do a great job in that role.
