Cooper to play devil in next

Actor Bradley Cooper is all set to play a devil in his upcoming film, an adaptation of John Milton's epic poem " Paradise Lost".

The "Hangover" star will embrace his dark side to portray Lucifer in the film, which will revolve around the biblical tale of Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden, reports dailystar.co.uk.

The movie will be directed by Alex Proyas, who plans to shoot maximum portions in his native Australia.

"Paradise Lost" is scheduled for a 2013 release.
In the new film, Aniston plays a dentist who sexually harasses her assistant, played by Charlie Day.

Cooper, Aniston not dating

However, sources close to Cooper have denied reports the pair were trying to rekindle their short-lived romance from 2009.

"They were looking at projects to work on together. Bradley loves Jennifer as a friend," PopEater quoted a source as telling UsMagazine

"Bradley knows that by dating Jennifer, he''d be known as Mr. Jennifer Aniston, " the source added.

According to some sources, the intense scrutiny over Aniston''s choice in men plus her immense fame are holding the ''Hangover'' actor back from getting into a relationship with the 'Friends' actress.
