Did you guys know they're making American Sniper into a movie?

I read the book by Chris Kyle, the sniper with SEAL team 3 who recorded ~160 confirmed kills and ~255 unconfirmed kills making him the most lethal American sniper in history. Aside from the Ventura part, which I have mixed feelings about, it was a great read. Apparently Eastwood is directing and Bradley Cooper is playing Kyle.

Sorry if Germans, but I literally just discovered this like a couple minutes ago. With Eastwood directing I think it could be a hell of a movie and Cooper has bulked up and straight up looks like Chris Kyle, check this out:


Hopefully Cooper knocks it out of the park. Really looking forward to this.

I hope they do a good job with the movie, because the book was a great read.

Agree, good book and i'm looking forward to this. Although I'm not a big fan of Ventura, I must agree with him that the incident did not happen which make Kyle less credible IMO. Kinda makes you wonder if Kyle is just full of shite on several accounts.

They have been trying to make it a movie for a couple of years now.

Hope they include the part where he sits on top of the superdome during Katrina to pick off looters and other misfits

Wasn't this guy confirmed to be full of shite? I got the vibe from reading parts of his book that he was a pathological liar
