Friday, April 12, 2013
Crews have been spotted around the city, including on Millbury Street. Batman and Dark Knight star Christian Bale was spotted at Nick's Bar and Restaurant.
The so far untitled movie, formerly referred to asAmerican Bullsh*t, was written by Eric Singer and will be based on the FBI's 1970-80 Abscam sting operation run from their Long Island office. The operation aimed to root out corruption in public office and led to the convinction of a US Senator, a member of the New Jersey Senate, five members of the House of Representatives, an inspector for the Immigration and Naturalization Service, and members of the Philadelphia City Council.
Bale initially signed on to play the lead role last spring, but dropped out and was replaced by Bradley Cooper. However, Bale rejoined the cast in the same role, while Cooper now plays FBI agent Jimmy Boyle. The star-studded cast will also include Hunger Games heroine Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Robert De Niro, Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, and Louis CK.
