Before Christian Bale was an American Psycho causing people to bleed, he played the son of a Russian Tzar who suffered from hemophilia in Anastasia: The Mystery of Anna. Every now and again you can catch a glimpse of the what the 11 year old back on 1986 would look like today.
Is Christian Bale out as Batman for the third installment of the new franchise? Well according to The Herald Sun his Terminator Salvation co-star Sam Worthington is being tipped to replace him in the third Batman prequel?
Am I the only one who hadn't heard that Bale was considering not returning as the caped crusader or that they didn't even want to bring him back? One exposed bad day on a set is not a reason to replace someone, especially someone as talented as Christian Bale.
Personally I wonder if Worthington's people leaked this story in order to get some press for their star? He is Australian and the paper that broke it is from Down Under?
Do you want see Bale back as Batman or would you like someone new in the suit like Worthington?
Christian Bale called up KROQ’s Kevin and Bean show to apologize for his rant that was leaked from the Terminator: Salvation. Maybe because he is speaking in his native British accent, but his apology was given with class! Good for him for being a man and admitting his mistake!!!

Radar Online says that the first picture of Christian Bale and the director of photography, Shane Hurlbut was taken on the set of Terminator: Salvation shortly before that now that infamous rant. It looks like in that photo, that Bale is very focused and you can almost see how intense he is about whatever he is thinking. I personally think he rant was wrong, but I know I have been at jobs where I have been yelled out almost like the Bale rant. You kind have to grin and bear it and just be thankful you are not that person that feels the need to rant like that.
And when it comes to the second picture, that is from the movie and is kind of how I picture Shane once Bale was done with him!

Christian Bale’s rant on the Terminator: Salvation set is probably better than any scene from the movie!
Here is what the Bruce mentioned in the video told E! News about that f*cking bad day:
Bruce Franklin, an assistant director and associate producer on the fourth Terminator film, tells E! News that Bale, a “consummate professional,” just had a bad day.
“If you are working in a very intense scene and someone takes you out of your groove…It was the most emotional scene in the movie,” said Franklin. “And for him to get stopped in the middle of it. He is very intensely involved in his character. He didn’t walk around like that all day long. It was just a moment and it passed.
“This was my second movie with Christian, and it has always been a good experience with him,” added Franklin, who also worked with the actor on 2000’s Shaft. “He is so dedicated to the craft. I think someone is begging to make some noise about this, but I don’t think it’s fair. The art of acting is not paint by numbers, it’s an art form. “
I think I agree with the AP because you can tell he is a very intense actor by his movies and if someone messes up the scene after long hours you can kind of understand why he lost it. But then again I think I will always have a soft spot for him in my heart.
BTW I found it interesting kept switching between his American and English accents.
