Christian Bale is eyed to star in Fox's project "Exodus". According to Deadline, director Ridley Scott is courting the star of "The Dark Knight Rises" to tackle the Moses role.
Christian Bale is still in early talks with the studio, but Fox wants to get the project off the ground quickly. The studio is hoping that Scott can start working on the film right after he completes "The Counselor" which is set to be released in November 2013.
Scott is going to direct the film based on the script re-written by Steve Zaillian after taking
it over from Adam Cooper and Bill Collage. The plot details are still
kept under wraps, but it will tell the story of Moses who was born a
slave, became an Egyptian prince and eventually delivered his people
from bondage.
This is not the first time Bale is eyed to play a biblical figure. He was considered to star in Darren Aronofsky's "Noah". He turned it down and the role went to Russell Crowe.
