Michael Fassbender may take over Christian Bale's NOAH role for Darren Aronofsky

Christian Bale has chosen not to star in Darren Aronofsky’s Noah because he is too busy shooting Terrence Malick’s next film. Variety (via The Film Stage) is reporting that there is some light at the end of the tunne and that Michael Fassbender is now being sought for the role. A deal has yet to be finalized, but the Shame star “has discussed the part with Aronofsky.” Things are looking really good for the deal. Fassbender has been given some extra time for Londongrad, which fits perfectly for the planned start date of Noah this spring.

Aronofsky and Ari Handel penned the first draft of the script, and John Logan (The Aviator) recently did a drat. The film  is planned as a reinterpretation of the Noah character. I think this movie is going to be epic, While it is unfortunate to lose Bale, Fassbender would be a great addition to the film.

What are your thoughts? Do you like Fassbender for the role?
