Bradley Cooper is in talks to play Lucifer in Legendary Pictures' "Paradise Lost," an adaptation of the epic 17th-century English poem by John Milton.
According to Variety, Legendary's Thomas Tull and Jon Jashni will produce along with Vincent Newman.
Warner Bros. will distribute the film worldwide.
Alex Proyas ("Dark City," "Knowing," "I, Robot" and "The Crow") will direct.
The film will take the frame of an action film, telling the story of the epic war in heaven between archangels Michael and Lucifer.
There is a possibility of the film being shot in 3D.
Stuart Hazeldine wrote the main draft of the screenplay that was originally written by Byron Willinger and Philip de Blasi. Lawrence Kasdan and Ryan Condal also did separate polishes.
Cooper is riding high off the success of Relativity Media's "Limitless," which is still in theaters.
He stars in the highly anticipated "The Hangover Part II," which opens on May 26.
