 Mann, Depp, Bale....OH MY!!!!
Quote: Christian Bale is in talks to star opposite Johnny Depp in "Public Enemies," the Depression-era crime drama Michael Mann is directing for Universal.
An adaptation of Brian Burrough's book "Public Enemies: America's Greatest Crime Wave and the Birth of the FBI, 1933-43," the story follows the government's attempt to stop the criminals John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson and Pretty Boy Floyd. Depp is playing Dillinger.
Bale would play Melvin Purvis, who led the FBI's manhunt for Dillinger and captured more public enemies than any other agent in FBI history. It was Purvis who uttered, "Stick 'em up, Johnny" when he confronted Dillinger in Chicago. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/con ... c5d3ac4b92

That'd definitely be another American Gangster. Which such a director and cast and some solid marketing, $120+ million is assured.

 Re: Mann, Depp, Bale....OH MY!!!!
I miss the days when gangsters and criminals had twee nicknames. There's something about a gangster called 'Babyface Nelson' that makes you want to forget about all that murdering business and just tussle up his hair, the ol' rapscallion.
Sounds like another Oscar frontrunner.
