Coming off an Oscar win for The Fighter and currently shooting one of the biggest films of 2012, Christian Bale has a wide variety of projects to choose from as his follow-up to The Dark Knight Rises.  His third (and supposedly final) Batman film wraps shooting this fall and he's eyeing various high-profile projects as his follow up.  Variety reports that he's considering Clint Eastwood's remake of A Star Is Born starring Beyonce Knowles, Michael Mann's Gold, the villain role in Spike Lee's remake of Oldboy, Scott Cooper's Out of the Furnace, and Darren Aronofsky's Noah.  Bale was supposedly set for Zack Snyder's The Last Photograph but he is no longer involved with that project.  Variety also doesn't mention the untitled Terrence Malick film Bale reportedly signed on to last week.According to Variety, Bale won't make his decision until The Dark Knight Rises wraps shooting in November nor is he necessarily the front-runner for any of these movies.  It's also worth noting that all these roles play to Bale's dramatic side even though he gave audiences a glimpse at his ability to go beyond grim-and-gritty in The Fighter, and it's easier to get excited about him signing onto a film after that great performance.
