Actor Ray Winstone is the latest to consider taking a trip with director Darren Aronofsky's "Noah."
Deadline is reporting that the actor is in negotiations to play the role of the main antagonist to Noah, who will be played by Russell Crowe ("Gladiator").
The film tells the Biblical tale of Noah, who was directed by God to create a giant ark to save two of every animal before a great flood wiped the Earth clean.
Last week, it was reported that "Harry Potter" actress Emma Watson was in talks to join the cast as Ila, a woman who is involved with Noah's son Shem, portrayed by Douglas Booth ("The Pillars of the Earth" and the forthcoming "Romeo and Juliet").
Logan Lerman ("Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lighning Thief") is also attached as Noah's other son Ham.
This will be Aronofsky's followup to his Academy Award-nominated films "Black Swan" and "The Wrestler."
Winstone was most recently seen in "Snow White and the Huntsman," in which he played Gorth, one of the seven dwarfs. His resume also includes roles in "Hugo," "The Departed" and "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull."
