Christian Bale Exits Michael Mann’s ‘Enzo Ferrari,’ Balks At Weight Gain







Come On Down Mesut Özil




 EXCLUSIVE: Christian Bale is reluctantly getting out of the driver’s seat on Michael Mann’s long-gestating Enzo Ferrari. The shape-shifting actor is stepping aside after health concerns over the weight gain necessary to play the iconic carmaker. Bale, who has yo-yo’d throughout his career between extreme weight loss and gain – compare his emaciated turn in The Machinist to his button-busting fatso in American Hustle – appears to have finally bitten off more than even he could chew.

 The start date of spring this year was simply too soon for the Big Short actor to get that out of shape again. Mann is moving fast to re-cast the plum role and is currently speaking to some heavyweight actors.
While Bale’s exit is a blow, the project remains very much on track, with Paramount distributing in most territories. The combination of Mann, subject matter and role should lend itself to finding another top actor shortly. Vendian Entertainment and Bliss Media are financing the project, with plans to shoot this summer in Italy. Bliss Media China will distribute Enzo Ferrari in China.

The story takes place in one pivotal year, 1957. It is the highly personal account of Ferrari faced with a convergence of dilemmas at a critical time. The script by Troy Kennedy-Martin (The Italian Job and Edge Of Darkness) was revised by David Rayfiel (The Firm) and Mann. It’s based on the Brock Yates book Enzo Ferrari, The Man, The Cars, The Races. Mann’s reps at CAA arranged financing for the film and brokered the distribution deals. Mann has been working on Enzo Ferrari for 15 years, initially shaping it with the late Sydney Pollack.

Fifth of people in UK will suffer from poor health before age 30 Researchers said that a high proportion of the population will not reach their pension age in good health A fifth of people in England cannot expect good health beyond their 30th birthday, according to analysis of the nation’s wellbeing. By the age of 50, most people will have at least one long-term health condition, such as serious mental illness, asthma or diabetes. The figures, based on data from medical records, calculate that the amount of time during which people can on average expect to be in good health is more than a decade less than official estimates. Delaying the onset of such significant health conditions by even one year could save the NHS more than £3 billion a year, researchers said. The research, by Outcomes Based Healthcare (OBH), uses data from GP and hospital records to determine people’s “healthspan” — the length of time  they can expect to live in good health. It foun...

Slaves of the Caliphate The kidnapping, rape and murder of the Yazidi women of Iraq drew the world’s attention to the brutality of Isis. Mariane Pearl is now working with the women as they tell their chilling stories. Some of those who managed to escape were photographed in traditional dress and interviewed by Seivan M Salim       Seivan M Salim Published: 13 December 2015   (all photographs by Seivan M. Salim/Metrography) Mariane Pearl, interviewed by Christina Lamb , was in London earlier this month to launch a short film of interviews with Yazidi women, the ancient religious minority targeted by Isis last year. It was the plight of these women, trapped in the mountains of northwest Iraq after their husbands, sons and brothers had been slaughtered in their thousands in August last year, that alerted the world to the horrors of Isis. Forced out of their homes in the city of Sinjar, tens of...
