Bradley Cooper 'For Spielberg Sniper Movie'

Bradley Cooperis reported to have signed-up to appear in Steven Spielberg's next movie, titled American Sniper.

The star of The Hangover series is claimed by The Wrap to be joining the Lincoln filmmaker on the military movie project - which will be a co-production between Dreamworks and Warner Bros.

The movie is an adaptation of American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper In US Military History, by Chris Kyle, Scott McEwen and Jim DeFelice.

It traces Kyle's path from being a Texas rodeo cowboy to a Navy SEAL chief with the most sniper kills in US military history.

The movie was apparently fast-tracked after Kyle was shot and killed at a shooting range in February this year.
