Article Excerpt:

Recently, we discussed that Sienna Miller would play Maid Marian in Ridley Scott's upcoming Robin Hood flick, Nottingham, and we admitted we had no idea who was in the running to play Robin Hood. The Daily Mail may have our answer:

"Christian Bale, soon to be seen as the caped crusader in The Dark Knight, is in talks about donning the jolly Lincoln Green outfit of Robin Hood, where he will be part of a menage a trois between Russell Crowe's Sheriff of Nottingham and Sienna Miller's Maid Marian."

The menage a trois, I take it, is just an expression in this case.

We do have a few other casting notices from the film: Vanessa Redgrave and William Hurt are "in discussions" as well, and Saoirse Ronan, who was so good in Atonement, is said to be in the cast.

Bale has not been signed, but, "costume fittings begin next week, so he'll be either in or out by then."
