After years of playing Batman and other heroes, the original American Psycho, Christian Bale, could be looking to let a little evil back into his career. Read on for the first details.
According to Variety Bale is waiting for The Dark Knight Rises to wrap before picking his next project, which includes a possible stint as the main villain in Spike Lee’s adaptation of the Korean thriller Oldboy.
Oldboy tells the story of a man who is kidnapped and imprisoned on his daughter’s birthday. For fifteen years he is held captive and, upon his release, must begin his journey to find the reason for his imprisonment. He soon finds out that his kidnapper has plans for him more tortuous than his solitary confinement.
The original film, released in 2003 and directed by Chan-wook Park, won the Grand Prize Jury Award at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.
