A hot redhead circles David O. Russell's Bale/Wahlberg flick THE FIGHTER... No, not Harry...

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Variety is reporting that there's a bit of casting underway on David O. Russell's THE FIGHTER, the flick that tells the story of "Irish" Mickey Ward. See how I said that like I know anything about boxing?

Anyway, the trade says that the delicious Amy Adams is going to be playing a tough barkeep who becomes Mark Wahlberg (Irish Mickey)'s girl as his brother (Christian Bale) trains him, resulting in a lightweight world championship bout.

Again, I know zilch about sports or boxing outside of Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Jack Dempsey and Rocky Balboa, but I like all these elements and it'll be great seeing how they mix together. I hope we don't get a leaked video of Russell and Bale going at it while the kind and adorable Amy Adams is awkwardly caught in the middle. She's too sweet for that. Lily Tomlin could through down with the best of 'em, so she could fend for herself...

What're your thoughts?
