Posted byBy Joe Cohen | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

According  to the latest internet reports,  Christian Bale may be doing the 40 days and 40 nights journey in the Twentieth Century Fox’s version of the biblical story of Moses. This is the latest news to surface about the colossal project titled Exodus, where Ridley Scott stands at the helm with a script from Bill Collage and Adam Cooper.

Moses is the Hebrew child who was spare from sacrifice of the oppressing Pharaohs is the bible.  As an adult he killed an Egyptian and in order to escape curtain death he fled ffrom Egypt.  God ordered Moses to go back and free his people from bondage, which he did. When leading his people to the promise land, God parted the Red Sea to make way for Moses and his people and when the Egyptian army followed, God closed the red sea killing the Egyptian army.  As law for his newly freed people, God gave Moses the Ten Commandments.

Bale is best known for his role of Batman in, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, and The Dark Night Rises.

There is a race to the big screen between two upcoming Moses movie, Fox’s Exodus and Warner Bros.’ Gods and Kings. At this point, Exodus is leading the way due to the fact that Gods and Kings don’t even have a director yet.

Bale playing Moses has not been made official at this time. Update on this story coming soon…

 

 

 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
