After playing sinister characters in "The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford" and "The Killer Inside Me," Casey Affleck is joining the fight for good, as he's in negotiations to play the angel Gabriel in Legendary Pictures' "
Paradise Lost."
Alex Proyas ("The Crow") is directing the heavenly epic, which is a big-budget adaptation of John Milton's 17th Century poem. Bradley Cooper and Ben Walker star as warring archangels Lucifer and Michael, while Djimon Hounsou co-stars as Abdiel, the angel of death.
