Christian Bale

  1. This was a very poignant and painful moment in Chinese history and I was drawn to the radical difference between the atrocities that happen, versus the incredible humanity that emerges ... Yimou and I had spoken a little about the character, and this was not a guy who was a hero from the get-go, this wa...

  2. Oh come on! Stop it ... That's very sweet. Christian Bale is one of my favourite actors so I am hugely flattered. But it's ridiculous.

  3. Some people scratched their heads when I told them I wanted to do the project and said, 'Really, why?' I don't understand that sort of thinking ... I like the adventure aspect of making movies, so the opportunity to work in China, not on an American movie, but on a Chinese movie, really appealed to me. ...

  4. I use Christian Bale a lot when I’m talking about careers I really admire. You struggle to find a film where he didn’t do a fantastic job. He makes amazing choices. I thought The Fighter was one of the greatest films I have ever seen in the last five years.

  6. This will be, I believe, until Chris [Nolan] says different, the last time I’ll be playing Batman ... Absolutely, we want to go all out with it.

  7. I wrapped a few days ago so that will be the last time I'm taking that cowl off ... I believe the whole production wrapped yesterday, so it's all done. Everything's finished. It's me and Chris — that will be the end of that Batman era.

  8. I had plenty of scenes with Anne ... And I was there when we did the screen test for her. The thing that I said to Chris [Nolan] that day was that there were many very accomplished actresses who had read for the role. I’m terrible at auditions, so I’m very impressed when somebody really seems to acquire...

  9. I would see Joseph's performances in other films while we were filming ... He's somebody who truly seems to love acting. He's a good, smart guy. He did a very good job in the movie.

  10. We always maintained from the beginning that if you wanted to break it down, there are three personas – Batman is sincere, the private Bruce Wayne is sincere. The public version of Bruce Wayne, the playboy, is a completely fabricated performance.

  13. I like working with him a great deal. He goes the whole hog. I know that Bane has been seen in movies before. But, in my eyes, Tom is essentially creating Bane for the first time so there’s great freedom for him to be able to do so.
