Batman star Christian Bale is said to be re-teaming with the man who helped win him an Oscar for The Fighter, in a movie tentatively titled American Bullshit. As reported by Deadline, Bale and David O. Russell are circling the real life-inspired tale of an FBI investigation which led to the arrest of a number of notable figures in the 1970s. Labelled 'Abscam', the operation dealt with the arrest and prosecution of corrupt US congressmen.
While there is no word on who Bale might be playing, should he take on the role of an agent within the FBI it'll mark his second outing portraying a member of the infamous bureau. Bale starred alongside Johnny Depp's John Dillinger as Melvin Purvis in Michael Mann's Public Enemies.
