I just read this morning that Hollywood is planning an adaptation of Milton’s Paradise Lost. Bradley Cooper, the actor slated to play Satan, had this to say:
I’m very excited. I studied that poem at Georgetown, and I fell in love with that character. Satan is very compelling. You understand his argument. Hopefully we’ll be able to maintain the integrity of that.
I’m assuming he means maintaining the integrity of Milton’s poem and not that they’ll be arguing for Satan’s cause. Though with Hollywood, who knows?
