I just read that when he plays an American character, he would use an American accent when doing the interviews. This is way too cool lol
Nah, it's fucking lame. Nowadays he just does a London accent, even though he's from Wales. Just a nutjob.
@@ouncy He doesn't have a London accent he has a fairly neutral English accent he's not from Wales he was just born there to English parents and has lived all over in his childhood. He's definitely not Welsh
@@ronoccc you just contradicted yourself. he was born in wales, therefore making him welsh. its basic logic
@@Alecfisher01 No I didn't. I was born in Spain, both my parents are English, does that make me Spanish? I can't even speak Spanish. My best mate was born in Tokyo to English parents, is he Japanese? These days especially plenty of people are born in different countries to where there nationality lies. And if you're talking about Britain, plenty of English people were born in Wales, plenty of Scottish people born in England etc..
@@Alecfisher01 Ted Cruz was born in Canada, John McEnroe was born in Germany and Boris Johnson was born in USA.
he's so dedicated that he doesn't realize he's still doing an American Accent.
Lo Cas it was intentional! He felt that playing such an iconic American character, it was only right to keep the accent in his interviews
He's a method actor so he pretty much talks like the character in the interviews
Dedicated actor and near flawless american accent
The only time I could hear him slipping into his british accent is when he says "goal"
123rockfan heard that too. He struggles with “th” when it’s in the middle or at the end of words. One of the hardest parts to nail in the English language.
@@taylorduncan5703 Listen to how he said Nostrils. The no part is off
He grew up in both countries so he actually switches between the two and doesn't seem to have a static accent.
@@SirBigWater where at
His american accent is spot on
Yup he is a really dedicated actor,
While filming american psycho he always spoke with an american accent on screen as well as off-screen....
When the other cast members were told that he is actually british no one believed them....
Malhar Carvalho yea there was actually a time i thought his british accent was fake LOL. This is something i know method actors do, but i was stunned how long he pulled it off for, like long after filming o.o
+Malhar Carvalho this is probably why I always thought he was american until a few months ago...
maybe because he's been living in LA since 18, I mean it helps too of course.
Satria Pratama Rachmat Akbar true
I swear when he's talking in this interview its Bruce Wayne doing an interview.
Which one? The playboy or the real Bruce Wayne that only Alfred knows?
This is what happens when an actor completely understands the role he plays.
It becomes iconic.
He's the most professional actor I can think of.
HE WAS STILL IN CHARACTER
Christian Bale is my favorite Batman ever. Ben Affleck did a good job in Batman vs Superman but Christian Bale is the best.
Abso freakin Lutley. Bale is the goat
Yo
How awesome is it that whenever he plays an American character he will give interviews with an American accent?
+Emily McKeon He actually did this interview with the american accent due to most americans didnt know he is brittish.
+Simon Larsson at that time, but his fame has since been well established and people who've known this actor for a while now know that he has an English accents.
+Simon Larsson he's British?
yes he said that he didn't want to use his original accent in interviews , because Batman is such a American icon that he thought it would annoy Americans if they heard is Welsh accent
He doesn't really have a Welsh accent, more like Southern English.
I would love to see a biopic about this dude sometime. I swear every interview I see with him it's like a different person.
Hey... you can never have too much Christian Bale... fascinating character actor... and one of my favorites...
Quality interview too... that's why I'm subscribed to you Mr. Chuck... and it's crazy to see you without the goat...
best actor ever.
👍
Damn! This guy knows dedication.
How can anyone hate Christian Bale? He seems like a cool dude!
1 year late but whatever. Apparently he´s not a cool dude. There´s tons of people who say he´s an asshole and that he is super hard to work with.
@@CCbat33 thats been known forever lol. He's a professional guy who gets angry when people are unprofessional. It's similar to your boss yelling at you for not doing ur job right.
c c is it so bad he wants his art to come out perfect ?
picasso, that’s dedication.
Who hates Christian Bale?
Love how he credited the little kid for his role as kid bruce wayne.
FYI, the producers had asked Christian to use an American accent during interviews for Batman Begins because they didn't want the audience to know that Batman was being played by an Englishman. The whole idea of an 'English' actor playing an American superhero was kind of an issue back then in the early 2000s before the Superhero genre blew up.
Keep in mind this is long before people knew who Christian Bale was. Nowadays its not a big deal because he's since established himself as one of the better actors in Hollywood so he can just be himself.
having him use a american accent doesn't hide him being brit nor does prevent people from finding out that he's brit.
@@nerdygameraddicts861 But 15 years ago you'd be less likely to look it up than now. At the time if you thought he was American you'd have no reason to look him up. It's only cause he's not that people are interested.
He also played Bateman in AMERICAN Pyscho.
Yesus christ people need to chill ....
Wrong
I love bale I’m a huge fan Best Batman ever
Bale is my favorit batman
today i just found out that Christian Bale talks and gives gifts to cancer patients. It's incredible how much of a great person he is. The conversations he has with the cancer patients is on RUclips and it just made my day how nice he is.
I appreciate how passionate he is about the role. And I like the concept of the "Batman creature'".
Batman is Christian Bale.
4:13 i heard him slip in to his british accent
It sounded Irish though hahahaha
Dun
What wehv dOn wit
Oh shit this is my old profile
@@blackwaterproduction289that is my old profile that posted it
This is the performance right here....a lot of self sacrifice; total dedication to his art.
he is my favorite actor and one of the best actors at the moment.
i adore him because he was on of the reasons why i am so obsessed with batman.
he is the best batman in my opinion and i really miss him in that role so much.
i will continue to follow him and his work because of how versatile and method he is.
he is also a fanstastic person and i will give ben affleck the benefit of the doubt as the new batman
3:53 - completely true
been watching some of bale's interviews and he always comes off as very sincere and well spoken!
"A person who dresses up as Bat clearly has issues".......lmao
Christian Bale is an amazing actor and he, Kevin Conroy and Michael Keaton are my 3 favorite Batmen
Christian Bale is the perfect Batman for the justice league movie!
Sorry to disappoint...
Sorry to disappoint...
Ha!
many thanks !!!
Such perfect acting. Can't put it into words. Beautiful. Astounding Christopher Nolan if I can say.
It's obvious from his work that he is just an exquisite artist but hearing him discuss the preparation confirms it in a powerful way.
I can't unhear Patrick Bateman.
OMG, I agree! ;D I LLOVE CB!
Chris,you are my god,for playing such an ingenuine batman and bruce wayne.
He seems like a great guy, and at the same time a fantastic actor. He's so calm and passionate. :)
He is doing an American accent because producers told him NOT to do an Brittish accent when doing intervieuws about Batman. They didnt want the fans to think that the character Batman is an Brittish character,
I can watch the trilogy oh so many times and it's always new.
Man he speaks so well in this interview!
Yeah, you're right. And by the way, i like your account's photo. It looks pretty cool with Christian Bale and his batsuit!
Bravo. Bravo. Bravo.
Well done Christian..
I'm so hyped for 'Dark Knight Rises'.. and eventually (aft months perhaps) get the DVD for it and watch ALL 3 Films from start (Batman Begins) to finish!!!
*Woot!*
@SamCarricoPictures i always try and sum up my immense feeling towards his playing batman but tbh you've just summed it up so well it's brought tears to my eyes
@510g I agree with you on a DIME. I absolutely love Batman Begins, especially the scene where Raz burns down Bruce's house, and after the elevator collapses on the ground with Alfred and Bruce on it, Alfred says "Why do we fall........So we can learn to pick ourselves back up". Such an epic scene, love it LOVE it to death.
one of the best actors of our time
oh, gosh. i love his voice.
I was thinking the same thing... random upload...
HOLY SHIT MAN I got to get used to seeing actors with mustaches and interviewers that do not have a gottee holy shit that is cool also really awesome Interview I really love this movie way before The Dark Knight but this movie was really awesome when i came out I still watch it but I haven't seen this movie in a long time
1:01 His British accent comes back when he says “tailor made” and “smart” lol
That's some serious commitment to character.
i been fall in love of this man since "empire of sun"
3:46 the way he says good haha. Love him.
Hey Chuck! First of all thanks for the awesoem vid! secondly, did you feel like you were interviewing a completely different person when he came back around for his 'Dark Knight' interview? He's talking and moving with so much more energy and life in this interview if you compare the two.
... and god you're lucky you got to talk to him...I'm jealous.
Bro he gets Batman so well
im gonna give him credit because i wrote him off as typecast when this came out and hes still out there making movies
It’s stuff like this that made me think that bale was an American actor
Until Thor love and thunder where he was also interviewed
thanks
i just love the film
Good interview
this interview proves Christian's pure dedication to the character
The Dark Knight was a film masterpiece. And Batman Begins was the mold for it. Both GREAT movies!
CHRISTIAN BALE!!!!!!! I LOVE HIM SOOOOOOOO MUCHHHH!!!!
Begins is easily the best in the Nolan trilogy for me and my second favourite superhero film after Winter Soldier. Both near perfect films.
I remember watching this back in the day and honestly thinking that Christian Bale was actually American! I mean I was only a kid but that accent is just on point haha
I love how he's putting on an American accent in an interview haha
he seriously does a LOT of movies!
Very cool interview! Why wasn't it uploaded earlier?
Good interview. Christian Bale (while promoting Batman Begins) did all of his interviews with an American Accent, which he does very well. BTW, he's from Wales, not England.
You welcome! By the way, do you have any photos of Batman? 'Cause i'm a fan of Batman!
Bale!
I freaking love Batman Begins and The Dark Knight films. The two Batman films rocks!!!! The score by Hans Zimmer is da shit!! I can't wait for Batman 3!!!!!
Batman!
i love it in the first 20 seconds when katie holmes' eyes are rolling around in her head like she's dead. it's cute and funny, and it's almost like she's dying he he he
@nusucker
hahahah . Any idea why they everyone adds the " God damn " with with Batman ? seen it done a lot of times .
lol this is why I just found out he was english last week. didn't know he often used accents similar to the characters he's playing at the time.
BB without a doubt was the foundation on how to make a good comicbook movie
Christian Bale will always be my Batman ❤
No idea! I found it in the closet. It ran on my Portland show but for some reason I never uploaded it. I also found a bunch more including Elisha Cuthbert from House of Wax! (which was fun and got destroyed by critics but not me!)
Yo that intro tho lmfao
Mr. Christian Bale this is my favorite Bruce Wayne Batman of you that I like the best. The story is very philosophical, much more than the Dark Knight. We'll see how the next Dark Knight coming out summer 2012. doug
respect to that indeed
i love how christian is so lively here and in the dark knight rises interviews he was understandably quite and reserved so i was hoping for a more enthusiastic bale for the the dark knight rises interviews but hes just as quite and reserved! what happend to him, does he not enjoy the media, press thing?
Heath distanced himself from everyone else, living in a hotel acting by himself and even going as far as to writing a journal as Joker!
Bale when got the Batman role only spoke American accent until he perfected it.
Just few reasons why Dark Knight will always be the greatest superhero movie
The little tinges of his English accent still in there just make him sound like he’s from Baltimore lol
"The batmobile made my hair stand up." He is bald.
Arm hair.
testicle hair
@@IneshKhanal what no
What i mean is that do you have the cool one with the picture of Christian Bale standing with the batsuit? I know that i can find many of them online, but the cool ones, i need to find them with the right people!
took me 2 minutes before i thought about his accent lmao he nails it
Christian Bale! The legend..Batman!=D
Awesome!
He is British and i noticed now. Good lord he is so good with the accent
*welsh
@wideheadofknowledge. His self-explained reason is that he does it so it doesn't get confused with the film.
what i love about christian bale as batman is that when he was bruce wayne he sounded normal but as batman he sounded completely different. the previous batman actors didn't do this at all. bale is the best cause he can completely change his voice as batman so no one could tell its bruce wayne. thats a good actor. bale is the batman ever
Cheers.
Best Batman
Christian Bale is definitely the best Batman... the voice is just perfect, it fits the type of character Nolan created! waiting for the next movie ;)
ahh fair dos, I'll keep that in mind
Outstanding English actor who had the mis fortune to be born in Wales while his English parents were travelling ... but his roots are all English as is his up bringing and accent
the best batman
correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't wales still in great britain? haha i could be wrong though :P
You know, this was exactly what I think when I come across people arguing on youtube about who's better. In a few years time, when someone takes a new take on Batman, I probably won't like it because Bale is the only person I can see as Batman. I couldn't possibly imagine anyone else.
Cool it's the American Psycho version of Christian Bale! Its amazing how Christian can change his accent around. Hearing him speak this way brings him and us Americans closer to home. But I know he's a British man.
WANT ME TO GO TRASH YOUR LIGHTS?!?! hahaha
