Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Reynolds are set to star as artist couple in their next movie. The two actors have been tapped to portray Margaret and Walter Keane, whose doe-eyed children paintings became phenomenal in the 1960s, in a Tim Burton-produced indie film called "Big Eyes". Burton will produce the biopic with the screenwriting and directorial duty being tackled by filmmaker duo Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski.
Having had a friction with the government while staying in China to film "The Flowers of War", Christian Bale said that he is not worried that the film would get a censor in China. The lead star said he was happy enough to have done his part in the ambitious movie by director Zhang Yimou. "I just do what I do. What happens after I'm wrapped is always out of my hands. It doesn't matter which country that's in, which scenes get chosen, which scenes get cut, that has nothing to do with me," the actor said. The film, about the Japanese army's 1937 rampage through Nanjing, is touted as the most expensive Chinese film in history at an estimated $94 million. The dialogue is split between English and Mandarin, prompting Bale to require a translator to work with Zhang.
