Bradley Cooper as Chris Kyle

[JustinJ]

Looks like Bradley cooper will be playing Chris Kyle in the American Sniper movies base on Kyle's book. He's gained 40 pound for the role and I think the resemblance is uncanny. Also Clint Eastwood to direct the film. Should be good!

Wow think this will be one to watch.

It will be good

Good to see. I think he will do well. I saw where he really takes to studying the weapons and learns the way it should be.

[NotJose]

Can't wait to see the film!

If it's as good as the book, it'll be awesome...

When does the movie come out?

Can't wait to see the movie. Dauber (Kevin Lacz) is a technical advisor for the film and is playing a role in the movie, so at least they have someone there keeping them from getting too Hollywood with it.

I was leery of the decision to cast Cooper as Chris Kyle since I didn't think he fit the physical characteristics. Well, that thinking has been squashed! Can't believe that's Bradley Cooper, dude looks just like Chris Kyle!!!! I'm pumped to see this movie. With Cooper's acting and Eastwood's direction, it should be a **** fine film.

I have a lot of respect for Cooper. He actually bought the rights to the book himself when it came out. This is his project he started. I hope the movie is half as good as the book.

Its going to be awesome. Cooper and I want to say Eastwood but im not positive about Clint were in Midlothian a couple of months ago, I guess to meet Taya and the kids and get a geneal feel for Chris's hometown and family.
