    It's hard to not respect a guy who is so dedicated he treats his own body like it's just part of the costume he will be wearing without a second thought. He's not even self conscious about his appearance no matter what direction it takes him. He knows he is above social scrutiny and goes in hard every single film. It's hard to imagine it's not even for the money either its just being a legend. Life long hero Mr. Bale.

    Imagine he trained to become an actor, he'd win Oscars every year by now.

    This dude's repeated weight loss/gain sincerely worries me. Fantastic actor though.

      I'll be impressed if Bale manages to live well into his 70s/80s. He recently did an interview with CBS where he alluded to the fact that he was worried about his heart after flippantly trying to put on weight again for a different role and was worried to the point that he dropped out of that movie. Though at least he's finally seeing nutritionist instead of winging it.

    Am I the only one who finds him incredibly funny? Also, he's really good at being fat, if that makes sense.

    I can't believe anybody would compromise their body like that. Just use prosthetics! He already got his oscar and he may never bounce back from this.

      You haven't actually followed his career have you? Or that of someone like DeNiro?

    The question I would ask is do you finally get the privacy you want as I bet not many people will recognise him Now

    Never seen a celebrity who wears his stardom so lightly and is willing to risk all of it
