Darren Aronofsky's "Noah" Gets Ready to Set Sail

Back in June of last year, we told you about Darren Aronofsky, the fantastic director who gave us "The Wrestler" and "Black Swan" among others, was shopping his edgy retelling of "Noah's Ark."

Now, Deadline is reporting that the deals for "Noah" are done with help from co-producing partners New Regency and Paramount. Shooting is expected to start in July and Russell Crowe is set as Noah.

Once upon a time, Christian Bale was Aronofsky's first choice but the actor's back-to-back schedule prohibited him from embarking on the journey. So now, it's up to Crowe to be both the master and commander of the ship.

John Logan ("Gladiator") reworked the script originally written by Aronofsky and Ari Handel.

I trust Aronofsky's instincts as a filmmaker so I think this film will float our boat! HA! (Check out my fun interview with the director for "The Wrestler" right here)
