Best Lucifer (next to Al Pacino) IMO

Is that Bradley Cooper? The imdb/wiki both say it's him but I really can't see it.

Looks nothing like him, although I've only seen him ever with the long hair.

Can't really tell with the picture I posted or are you confusing Lucifer, Peter Stormare, from Constantine with Bradley?

**Overburn** · 2011-07-27 06:35

Oh. Never seen Constantine. Thought that was a promo pic for the movie

Well, Lucifer always struck me as an "alternative lifestyle" sort of celestial being. There is no man or woman of any species outside his tastes.

Benjamin Walker is currently in talks to play Archangel Michael in Alex Proyas' Paradise Lost for Legendary Pictures. Deadline reports that the Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter may star in the adaptation of John Milton's 17th-century English poem "about the epic war in heaven between Archangels Michael and Lucifer."Bradley Cooper is set to play Lucifer in the film.

Paradise Lost is scheduled for release in 2013 and is set to go into production in Sydney early next year, likely shooting in 3D. Stuart Hazeldine, Byron Willinger, Philip de Blasi, Lawrence Kasdan and Ryan Condal wrote the script. The film is said to include "three major battle sequence; one in Heaven, one in Hell and one Eden."

Walker has also starred in Kinsey and Flags of Our Fathers.

I know angels can take any form they want, but he just looks too young and well, not good looking enough for my tastes.

I hope they don't fuck up Milton's work. Though I imagine they will. ;; It could be so epic otherwise.

**Greedouw** · 2011-08-04 22:44

Tbh, he looks a LOT like angels painted in most religious paintings; check out the facial features:

Too bad Tarsem Singh isn't directing this, his visual style would be perfect IMO

Bradley Cooper has some cool films coming out this year, with A Place Beyond the Pines opposite Ryan Gosling and The Silverlinings Playbook from David O. Russell. I was happy when he decided to drop out of the doomed (my opinion) reboot of The Crow so that he could play Lucifer in Alex Proyas' Paradise Lost. The film is an adaptation of John Milton's epic poem about war in heaven. That war almost did not get off the ground because of it's big budget.

During an interview with The Playlist at Sundance, he gave an update. Cooper said that things are back on track, and stated, "We're going to hopefully start in June. Everything's going great. I mean, nothing's done until we're up and shooting."

The Hangover III will not get in the way of Paradise Lost. This will be great for Cooper, who is looking at a $15 million payday for the third comedic installment. Before Paradise Lost hit that bump in the road, it had Benjamin Walker, Casey Affleck, Djimon Housou, Diego Boneta, Camilla Belle, Sam Reid, Rufus Sewell, and Callan McAuliffe attached to star. Let's hope they are all still on board for it, and it makes it to theaters in 2014.

I really can't imagine how they could possibly not fuck it up. I'll probably end up watching it, though, since they cast Rinoa as Eve.
