For all of the Batman Begins fans out
there, and there should be a bunch, Christian Bale did a little sit-down
and discussed his roles in not only Batman
Begins and The
New World.
Batman Begins Interview
SHH
was able to catch up to Christian Bale and get him to say a few words about
going skinny, then becoming overweight, and then becoming in-shape again.
Bale also mentions a few words about the upcoming epic The New World,
and what it takes for him to prepare for a role. Here is a snippet from
that interview:
Q: What weight are you right now?
Christian Bale: I've got no idea. I'm going to be doing
a Werner Herzog movie and I kind of have to lose a bit of weight for that.
Just a little but, so I'm just starting to diet now. I'm usually about 185.
Q: Speaking of weight, you said when you lost a lot of weight for
The Machinist you were very serene and calm. Once you started eating food
you got a little more antagonistic. How was your mood on this film when
you started bulking up?
Bale: You do get a lot of nervous energy. I think putting
weight on, unfortunately I had to put it on pretty fast, and it's not very
healthy doing that. That was when I felt bad. I did actually start to feel
I was putting my body under too much pressure because I put on 100 pounds
in five months. You get big mood swings, but not such a bad thing when you're
playing this darker version of Batman.
Bale goes on to talk about other projects [past
and present], and the possibility of a Batman vs Superman movie.
