Christian to play a Christian?
Zhang Yimou has become quite an unpredictable, interesting director in recent years. He established himself with lush, dramatic, even operatic historical pieces, and more recently reinvented himself as a master of colorful, elaborately choreographed martial arts dramas like Hero and House of Flying Daggers. Along the way, there was the quiet, poetic epic The Road Home. And most recently, he baffled everybody by remaking the Coen Brothers' crime-story classic Blood Simple.
What's next? He and Christian Bale are joining forces for an interesting project. And it looks like Christian Bale will be playing a Christian character again for the first time since... what, The New World?
