Christian Bale: From Hottie To CRACK HEAD
Filming continues this week on the NYC set of the new film The Fighter, which stars Christian Bale as an ex-training coach turned crack user and Marky Mark Wahlberg as an up-and-coming fighter, as new scary photos from the set continue to come out. The latest pics of Christian Bale are really very horrifying to look at … especially in comparison to how amazingly hot the man looks usually … like, for example, the way he looked in his role as Patrick Bateman in American Psycho:
Say what you will about the man’s acting abilities (after all, he wasn’t all that great in Terminator: Salvation and was only marginally improved in Public Enemies … and don’t get me started on that voice he uses in the Batman films), he really outdoes himself physically when he prepares for a role. Christian Bale looks like a bona fide crack head in this new photo:
Yikes doesn’t even seem to encapsulate my feelings on this photo. I can deffo appreciate the mans commitment to his craft but I’m very much looking forward to the wrap of this movie so that Bale can go back to lookin’ hawt again. Yeesh.

Do you know if he has a nutritionist or something? Because honestly, this cannot in any way be good for his health. His body must be taking a serious beating…
July 29th, 2009 at 8:22 am
well, we all know how much he gets into his roles (e.g., yelling at that lighting guy)… this doesn’t even look like him. if I passed him on the street, I’d be afraid of him!

he’s soo method.
July 29th, 2009 at 8:36 am
HOLY SHIZ…He is losing his teeth:)! He is a damn good actor thou..

Gross and sad. CB was so hot! I hope he bounces back well. :)

Will somebody give this guy an Oscar already so that he can stop torturing himself for the roles?!? I believe you Christian when you say you’re a crack-head…no here’s a pile of trophies and awards for the most committed Actor ever!! He beats Robert DeNiro and Angelina Jolie when it comes to phrase “committed performances”

Ugh he looks really gross. Yeah he looked terribly unhealthy in the machinist and it looks like he is doing that again.
July 29th, 2009 at 10:12 am
Yikes! Gross!
Just don’t get sooo into his roles and pull a Heath Ledger on us!

@Steph – Yes, he’s said in many interviews he has someone who helps him with his roles that would change his body weight.
No matter the bad press he’s gotten, I will always say he’s a dedicated actor. You can’t find many of them.

He could be the next Tom Hanks if he just, you know, could act.
July 29th, 2009 at 10:32 am
Such dedication. I’d love to see the insides of his body. That must not be pretty.
July 29th, 2009 at 11:08 am
So he could be getting an Oscar now. Good for him.

@ Janelle: Well, that’s a relief to know, at least. Thanks!

he is so hot when he was in batman, now he looks like the creepy guy you don’t want to see at night

I think he is a great actor. And his rant was inappropriate, but the anger behind it was completely justified. What DP wonders around a set during filming, into sight lines? I mean, really! I also have to defend the Batman voice. It wouldn’t make sense that just because he has a mask on, people wouldn’t recognise who he is based on his voice.
And I wouldn’t worry about his teeth. It looks like he is in costume, and they probably intentionally yellowed them (and you can see the dark make up under his eyes, and how they used shading on his cheek to make it look gaunt).

thank you, i HATE that batman voice, i don’t think i can watch another batman movie because of it. i know just the mask isn’t the worlds best disguise, but damn, that voice is horrible!
July 29th, 2009 at 9:06 pm
“and don’t get me started on that voice he uses in the Batman films” okay i thought i was the only one! i don’t mind that it gets all deep and freaky loud when he puts on the mask… it’s the lisp! this is batman and he should not all of a sudden have a lisp!!
(not that there’s anything wrong with ppl who have them so responses to my rants need not apply)
July 29th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
It is for a role. I am sure you knew that already.
July 30th, 2009 at 5:51 am
OMG……LOL@ the Funky Bunch reference, Trent! I’m sure he’d appreciate that one. ;)
July 30th, 2009 at 6:24 am
GOSH,SOME OF YOU GUYS DON’T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT HOW MOVIES ARE MADE!!! If he’s grossing you out,then that only means he’s a damn good actor!!! The idea here is to look like a crack addict,and dammit,he NAILED IT!!!! And if you know anything about movie prosthetics,you’d understand that the teeth are fake,they are not his real teeth.Look,Christian has a loving wife and daughter,he would never do anything like he did in “The Machinist” to jeopardize his health.He vowed to never lose weight again for ANY ROLE in the future,after this one.I’m sure he has a Nutritionist,and he’s lost the weight in a healthy way,without starvation.I love this man madly,and I know once the filming is over,he’ll be back in fighting,kickass form for the next Batman movie.So I don’t care what the haters say,he’s still hot,and I’d do him right now,just the way he is.Btw,the lisp is sexy smexy baby,and his voice is orgasmic.I LOVE YOU CHRISTIAN,BALEHEADS RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
