Christian Bale and Nicolas Cage to star in the same movie; will probably be super, super weird together
Christian “Yelling At The Lighting Guy” Bale has signed on to costar in a movie with Nicolas “Cool Hair, Bro” Cage. The film in question depicts the (in)famous rivalry between Thomas Edison and Nikola Tesla. It’s reportedly titled “Tesla, Ruler Of The World” and will (again, reportedly) come out in theaters in 2013.
Our friends at Uproxx made a brilliant point in that Bale looks almost exactly like Tesla:
You have to admit, the resemblance is uncanny. We wonder, then, what the infamously coiffed Cage will look like as the alleged father of electricity (when he actually just patented abso-fucking-everything). So: what will Nicolas Cage’s hair be like this time? Here’s Edison at 20:
Oh. So, kind of like Edward Norton, then? Boo. Here’s to hoping he’s still as batshit crazy as ever.
Here’s a video of Nicolas’s crazy hair throughout the years:

Bale wasn't just yelling at a lighting guy – he was yelling at the director of photography, a postion that requires a lot of skill and lot of professionalism, which Shane Hurlbut does not have.

I misread Bale's nickname here to be "Yelling at the Lightning Guy"…..Lightning, not lighting.
I'd yell at the lightning guy too. Thor?
