Bale Could Witness "An Act of God"

Director Todd Haynes might be re-teaming with actor Christian Bale for the third time on his upcoming political film An Act of God according to The Tracking Board (via The Playlist).

If he signs on, Bale would play a Kansas man who gains notoriety across the nation after taking his local government to task following a devastating tornado.

Haynes has previously said he wants to explore heartland America's suspicions about government, how that "keeps clicking into conservative politics and the way the right makes use of those uncertainties. There’s interesting reasons why people feel the way they do, outside of the coasts and outside of the clear liberal orthodoxy, and that interests me."

Bale previously worked with Haynes on "Velvet Goldmine" and "I'm Not There".
