The UK publication “Nuts” (NSFW) predominantly for males, has reportedly been talking with Christian Bale, so our reader Pablo tells us,

In the latest edition of Nuts magazine ( UK ) there is an interview with Christian Bale, in which he states he`s in the running to play Solid Snake in the 2009 movie Metal Gear Solid.

This is nothing more than a rumor at the moment, and Nuts isn’t well known for its newsworthiness. Let’s see how this one evolves.

RUMOR has it that Alex Garland’s treatment of the Halo subject has been leaked onto the internet, via BitTorrent in a PDF format. At least this is the case made by 1Up. They claim that the script itself, found via one of their forum members, shows a number of parallels with the Latino Script review from December 2005 (back when the movie was in development).

1Up have pasted some pages from the script showing the introduction and intended finale and setup for a sequel. Warning, SPOILERS herein.

This version has since been abandoned, production instead opting for a rewrite by D.B.Weiss.

Here are a couple of interesting things from through-out this week. First up, Yahoo have posted the voice-over Dark Knight teaser video in high definition, here’s the link.

Here is another Gotham explosion video via YouTube:

Over at the SHH forums Big Engine posted up some inside pictures of the Cardington Hangers in the UK, to be used as the setting for a fight scene:

And some SWAT stunt footage via Lexwalk (warning the description of this video and the video itself can be considered a bit spoilerish):

Meanwhile, Maggie Gyllenhaal has been doing some modelling for Agent Provocateur.

And have a good weekend folks!

The MAGIC apparel industry show in Las Vegas this year had a Dark Knight stand, sporting some juicy clothing items. Kung Fu Radio were there to cover the Dark Knight booth.

Here are some of their snapped shots:

One lucky flickr user, carscomeditor, was on scene with camera to witness the Murcielago accident.

Check out the flickr gallery for a couple more pictures.

… and there is no better way to mark it than with a dented, busted up Lamborghini. A Murcielago (which translates to Bat) to be precise.

Pictures thanks to rory_bat; he is now heading back to the East Coast, whilst Batman’s filming schedule takes them to England. Filming is set to continue until November.
