Would You Rather See Darren Aronofsky Cast Spells with ‘Maleficent’ or Part the Waters with ‘Moses’?

By  · Published on May 23rd, 2011

Baddass Digest is reporting that both The Mouse and Warners are trying to get Darren Aronofsky on board for big budget projects. For Disney, it’s Maleficent — the new take on Sleeping Beauty that sees Angelina Jolie wearing the horned black cloak. For Warners, it’s Moses – an epic about a Jewish slave in Egypt singing “Let My People….Go.”

On the one hand, Aronfosky could be spinning his own fairy tale. On the other, he could be re-imagining a Biblical history. Either way, none of this is a done deal because the studios are undoubtedly talking with other directors (like David Yates for Maleficent), and it’s not like Aronofsky has to choose simply between these two pictures.

Thus, the real question becomes: which would you rather see him do? The Moses, The Witch or the None of the Above?
