Darren Aronofsky's Wants To Make His Noah's Ark Film Epic, 'Not Very Religious'

You know that report about Darren Aronofsky wanting to spend $130 million on an "edgy retelling" of Noah's Ark? Well, he's really serious! In a new interview with IFC.com, the Black Swan director gave a few more details about his biblical dream project.

In terms of his vision, Aronofsky revealed, "I don't think it's a very religious story. I think it's a great fable that's part of so many different religions and spiritual practices. I just think it's a great story that's never been on film."

When asked whether the director wants to make a small character study or a big-budget disaster-type film, as previously rumored, Aronofsky said, "I want to make a big event film, and I think it can be that."

Sounds like a job for Roland Emmerich! Who's ready for Darren Aronofsky's not-so-biblical blockbuster?
