Looks like actor Christian Bale has found his next project. Bale is set to star in director Zhang Yimou's upcoming film, Nanjing Heroes. The film, which shoots in January, will tell the story of the infamous 1937 incident called the Nanjing Massacre. During the massacre, Japanese soldiers invaded the city of Nanjing, killed hundreds of thousands of people and raping thousands of women. Working off a budget of $90 million, the film will have Bale playing an American priest. With a budget that big, the film is set to be one of the biggest productions in Chinese history. For those wondering about the language issue, apparently 60% of the film is in Mandarin Chinese and the rest is in English.
