Strong cast? Foxx and Robbie is a good start if that pans out, but okay, nearly every A-lister is booked besides maybe Johnny Depp. Even Bradley Cooper is unlikely to be in this because of Nightmare Alley.

Christian Bale to Star in David O. Russell’s Next Movie; A-List Cast Soughtby Jeff Sneider January 16, 2020 SHARE TWEET After working together on The Fighter and American Hustle, Christian Bale is set to reunite with writer-director David O. Russell for the filmmaker’s next movie, which is being fast tracked by New Regency. I’ve heard that Bale’s fellow Oscar winners Jamie Foxx and Angelina Jolie are being sought for roles, and while I initially heard that Russell’s go-to leading lady Jennifer Lawrence was being courted for the female lead, I’ve since heard that Margot Robbie is the top choice to star opposite Bale. Sources have told Collider that the project’s working title is Amsterdam, and that it will follow the unlikely partnership between a doctor and a lawyer.Matthew Budman, who produced numerous movies for Megan Ellison’s Annapurna Pictures, is set to produce Russell’s film for New Regency, which will release the picture under its overall deal with Fox/Disney. Production is slated to start in April, which would gave Bale plenty of time to shoot the film before reporting to work for Thor: Love and Thunder in July/August. Bale won an Oscar for his supporting turn in The Fighter, and he currently stars opposite Matt Damon — who nearly starred in that film — in Ford v Ferrari, which is up for Best Picture. Russell hasn’t directed a movie since 2015’s Joy, though he has also been developing the hijacking tale The Skies Belong to Us at New Regency, with Michael B. Jordan attached to star and produce.

This might have a chance of being good if the rumors of Robbie replacing J.Law are true.

How is Bale+Foxx+Robbie not a strong cast? If only this had a strong director. If O. Russell can't get Cooper and De Niro in his thing, while countless A-listers are "too" preoccupied (Leo, Damon, Clooney, Denzel, Depp, Bullock, Winslet, Streep, Witherspoon, Theron, Roberts, Hanks, Smith, Jolie, etc.), that's telling. Even with the failure of Joy.

Even with the failure of Joy. This isn't 2013 anymore. With the successes of American Sniper and A Star is Born, Cooper is a way bigger movie star than Bale or Foxx. I don't think he's going to do a thankless Supporting part just because, and we don't know if there is a role in this that he'll find worth his time. He may not even be available, anyway, considering he's doing Nightmare Alley. As for De Niro, he also seems to be occupied with Killers of the Flower Moon.

Not interested in this combination anymore. That said "big film", "strong cast" certainly drew my attention.
Hopefully DOR can make it ready for the Oscar season.

I love Bale in The Fighter and I love that film too, but I've soured of Bale's roster of repeat directors (they are incapable of doing his enormous talent, true justice) and I want him to make some new director friends in the business!

But will he cast Lawrence again?? Will he cast her in a role she is too young to play? That is the question.

Okay looks like Margot has indirectly confirmed this project yesterday. The 'exciting project' bit was a dead giveaway!
