Christian Bale Apologizes for Tirade - Public Apology for Freak Out KROQ Exclusive w Kevin and Bean

- I believe Christian Bale gave a genuine apology on the KROQ "The Kevin and Bean Show." In his first public appearance since his blow-up, Christian Bale apologizes to the world. I think he really was sorry.
I like that youtube recommended me his freak out on set and than his apology the next day I love it
Exactly same thing happened to me lol
Lol no joke same here haha
Same here, and 10 years later after it happened too!
Same here lol
Same 😂
I honestly believe his apology. I think it’s sincere and I usually don’t believe celebrities when they do damage control.
"Me and Shane are good, we've got it resolved." And i bet Shane is sitting in his basment plotting to take down Christian going "We'll see who's done professionally"
Sounds legit, sincere, and from the heart. I don't see the big deal that everyone's making. We all have our bad moments when we work on a job or a project, and later on we apologize, admit we're wrong, and move on. I don't see how this has to be any different.
Well, if you do not happen to be a famous actor, it is quite likely that you will lose your job for such a rant. "Having Bad Moments" does not nearly justify such childish, overly aggressive insult sprees. Plus, he was even about to attack that guy.
You cannot just brush off every severe lack of professionalism as "bad moment" and then move on. People lose jobs for such behaviour. Imagine the DP yelling like this at Bale. You think he would have kept his job after that?
Not bloody likely.
he apologized because he got caught...what a jerk. He is trying to save his own ass so people don't think he is an ass...too late.
jessica you are an idiot you and others haters 10 yrs later bla bla jerk; nope; he had a bad day - one. it happens to all actors every day, he is actually very down to earth and great. he was angry like we all are sometimes when we have a bad day. f stop this absurd.
He does not need to apologize! I would have got pissed off to! Christian makes the best movies, and good movies dont have fuck ups! Christian nonsense, by all means swear! You are not a prima donna, your an actor!
I wanna think it was some "artist" just making a film, but seriously, we all go through shit in life, but we all have to keep our head about us. If the lighting guy made a mistake, reset, have a word or two, and then proceed on. It sucks because it ruins what this guy brings to other roles... batman? Was he constantly being a douche to everyone on set because he is Christian Bale? The guy has millions more than ANY of us have in the bank... wouldnt that be enough to keep a calm head knowing he wont ever have to worry about making rent or paying for a horrible surgery? I wish I could make a fuss about that sort of thing, but, I'm fighting with workmans comp just to get my leg fixed and keep a job so I can have a living wage... it's all perspective. Dont be a bitch Christian, you've got it made compared to the rest of us
He's trying to apologize and explain himself and these guys just keep interrupting him in between.
"NO! NNOOO! DON'T SHUT ME UP!! NO! SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
They never shut up
Who gives a fuck about Pussy Bale, he doesn't deserve a sliver of respect.
@@Skycrusher Lol are you the guy he yelled at or something?
@@acoop9865 Yes. I've yet to recover....
I've seen loads of interviews where he was a genuinely nice guy, and I think he just lost control for a minute. Even the nicest people can just go crazy when they're under pressure.
Exactly
Nah, he went completely unhinged. You don't talk to people like that, for that reason.
I think the phase “its always the quiet ones which snap the loudest” sums it up the best.
If you can be like this you are far from being nice.
@@Zodroo_Tint It's possible he just had a horrible day, didn't think the film was doing well, and then got mad the guy kept ruining his scenes. Even if you're the nicest person ever you can snap. That doesn't at all excuse what he did but he has apologized multiple times since and it was 13 years ago.
Decent apology But he is an amazing actor...so you never know
That was marvellous
I've actually been on a movie set before while they film a scene and they were filming from 7 pm to 5am and it literally took three hours to film one scene . So I would completely understand why he freaked out at least he said sorry to guy after . We are human and I've had moments like this lol
Sara Canas
I’ve worked a 36 hour shift, and still managed to be polite during my shift, didn’t blow up on one person.
I would be so pissed if someone gets in between my job. I wasn’t there.
waffle dino69
I was tired and could barely drive home, but didn’t take it out on people who didn’t deserve it. But then again, I’m not a Hollywood celebrity, they don’t need manners, they just get a free pass for being a prick, right?
its not the same; you can joke all you want, but acting is very demanding job, especially emotionally - and thats why he snapped. besiedes stop this bs. it was 10 yrs ago, actors have moments like this literally every day, it was nothing compared to some scandals other actors have had. Bale is very down to earth guy and it was just one time, so f off idiots. and he didn't get a pass, he nailed the apology.
@@johnmcmanus2447 oh wow, you need a medal then, clearly false equivalence makes people feel better about themselves. Did you spend months preparing, training, and getting ready for a role? Are you a method actor who spends huge amounts of time just to prepare yourself for one scene? Did you get distracted again and again after 3 hours of trying to get the scene right? Then your example has nothing to do with this. He didn't just take it out on people, he was trying to do his job and was getting distracted, try not to get angry after that.
"I'm looking forward to this movie. It does look really good."
Well then.
He realizes he crossed a line, I think he was just stressed from the scene, and now being distracted by some clown moving around on his set.
@62202ify - Well said.
@Eric Fox well it sure as fuck wasn't the DPs either
Btw, Do you like Phil Collins?
@Eric Fox its his scene jackass, same shit. Dude is fucking around during his scene, and you can tell he must of been fucking off otherwise there would be 20 of these rants of bale
This comment is favoritism on a high level
Bale has always struck me as an actor before a celebrity.
Somebody that puts dedication into his art first and foremost.
I can't believe people would think this guy regards himself as above others on a social level. I could understand if you think believes he's above others on an acting and professional level tho - I think he is.
Definitely one of my favourite current actors.
people tempt to forget that he is also a human like us. man, we all loose our patience in life. Some can handle it with ease, others freak out. and you need to put yourself into the situation: he has been working all day, he wanted the scene to be perfect, he's dedicated to his work, he was maybe already upset with something, we never know, ... so when I heard the footage, I wasn't shocked or anything. because yeah, he expressed his frustration, his disappointment and that happens everywhere to everyone. let's not use the footage as a an excuse to judge him and say that he is pretentious and he thinks that he's better than others. no he was just mad, that's it. and some of you will say 'yeah but that's not a reason to swear and to disrespect the guy' he maybe swore and things but obviously he didn't ment that, like that logical. and we don't live with him, we don't know his personality, we just see him playing roles. but other than that, I think Christian Bale is an amazing actor, he's really talented and this kind of incident must not affect the way people think about him. That one incident doesn't define him you know. try to think more openly and not just base yourself on one factor
If someone acted as he did in my job they’d be sacked. No one deserves to be spoken to like that. Shame as I really like him as an actor.
Okay but like I aint screaming at the light guy when I'm annoyed lmao. I just go have a smoke.
a sincere apology, mad respect for this guy and his passion for acting
are you still there
@@priyanshagnihotri4648no.

ROSS !
Hehe, 11 year hi.
Why have we, ross fans, gathered here.
@@Harith01x Ross is love, Ross is life.
Bale: I acted like a punk. What I did was absolutely inexcusable. Shane did a fantastic job. Deserving confidentiality is still no excuse; confidentiality isn't meant to cover up bad behavior. I apologized to him and we're still working together.
People in the comments: STOP MAKING EXCUSES!! OWN UP TO WHAT YOU DID!!!! APOLOGIZE TO THE GUY DIRECTLY!!!
I swear to god some people are so deluded by envy and a desperation to put someone more successful than they are down to feel better about themselves it's fucking pathetic
I dont see a single reaction that you put at the end there. You are trying to be funny. But this is just silly. Most reactions are perfectly positive. You are trying to stir some shit up. that isnt even there.
@@D0nKeY not sure what comment section you're looking at then

@@fluff975 you reacted 7 years later lol. Lets be honest most of the comments are perfectly fine and positive, you just wanted to be a smart ass and make some unfunny comment
Well Christian is known as THE DARK KNIGHT
It's true what he said. We ALL have our bad moments where we just snap and cross the line, totally regretting it later. It's just unfortunate that his was taped. People need to be less judgemental.
You need to be less judgmental! Walking around in the background like da da-da da-da!
@Foehammer - Agreed. Most people judge like they're saints.
I loved it. One of the greatest rants in history. I’m here in 2020. OHHHHHHH GOOOOOOD FOR YOUUUU
It's unfortunate that it was taped? Are you kidding? If it wasn't he probably would have forgot about it or not be inclined to apologize to begin with. Bale wasn't the one who made a human mistake, the guy walking in on the scene did.
I've had a boss that did what Bale did here on a daily basis. In fact I had to go to counseling after I quit because of it.
She'd attack me for the stupidest shit, like not wrapping a sandwhich properly or improperly marking a lettuce pan. Calling me names and telling me I was worthless despite me trying to do my best. The sandwhich thing was on day one, and the lettuce event was a week afterwards. It wasn't just me either, she attacked some of the front end women and other fry cooks for messing up orders or sending out the wrong stuff, and not just like letting us know we fucked up or something. Full blown attacking us and threatening to take money off of our paychecks, in fact she did whenever we cooked too many chicken nuggets.
When I requested fewer hours or gave her notice (during the interview that I could not work on certain days, she still put me on those days) she would make sly smug comments about how she had to work her ass off just to keep the place open.
I'd like to hear from the guy Bale attacked on set before I trust the word of some pompous actor who clearly isn't above attacking his own staff. Even if it was a one time thing and Bale apologized.
Yo he literally was half John Connor and half Christian Bale like he said, he was switching between accents like he was, crazy how actors do that to themselves, kind of scary.
say what you want but this apology is pure class man. Well done.
Okay so the freak out video really made me lose all respect for Bale, but the sense of his apology being actually genuine, has has earned some level of respect back.
Why only some?
He apologized because he was caught
First of all, it wasn't video, it was audio. And why would you lose all of your respect for a guy just for losing his temper? It really wasn't that big a deal, he didn't hurt anyone, he just yelled a lot. Calm down, pussy boy.
@@tonyvasquez6327 He apologized to the actual guy that day. Was he supposed to apologize to the world before the audio got leaked? When he already resolved it with the person he insulted?
He’s a legit human being👏👏👏👏👍
I don't understand why people can take that meltdown and automatically assume he is a bad and terrible person. He is one of the most humble and kind actors in Hollywood. We all have our bad days and he is allowed to be angry if someone is in the way and messing up what he is trying to do. You can obviously hear that he is sorry, regretful, and embarrassed. It's such a shame that people take that 3 minutes of rage and hold him against it and immediately say that he is one of the rudest actors in Hollywood even though he isn't.
Never heard this apology from way back then until today and glad he publicly addressed it and apologised about it. Probably had a lot more media attention across the pond than over here in the UK back then (especially it was more of an internet thing back then from what I remember over here). But how he retained the accent for so long in that outburst was something else though, lol👀
Interesting change of accent between the rant/tirade and the radio apology. I guess being angry with an American accent is more effective than using his British accent.
oysterman250 exactly.. bullshit apology.
oysterman250 If you've been talking with one accent the entire day - whoosh. Can also happen if you're surrounded by people with another accent for a (~) whole week.
fair point...
oysterman250 He's a method actor.
But I heard the rant as a British accent.
He's not sorry for yelling. He's sorry he got caught yelling
+slam bodrero How profound of you.
slam bodrero how do you know? Are you able to look into his soul and see that he is being insincere? He took responsibility for his actions, and admitted he was wrong. What more would you expect from him?
So.... 🤷🏻♀️
You never hear Christian Bale apologizing for other times he's blown up on set for other movies.
Only public figures have to watch their backs all the time and cant even freak out for 5 minutes, for a very good reason. Company owners freak out like that all the time. Its so sad how dependent on public opinion an actor is. This guy is all about acting , he is an artist. He shouldnt have to play ball with Huey, Dewey and Louie.
Today is the first time I even heard the original rant. I admit I was totally shocked at first then as it went on, I figured Bale was just losing it and not meaning anything he said. It is a good thing to see him apologize and take responsibility for his meltdown or whatever. Just shows Bale is a class act. He's a very talented actor and deserved those Oscars. He's also a great Batman right up there with Michael Keaton.
Bitch u sound stupid af
How is he a class act? Hes a fkn cunt and a fk
The only problem I have with his apology is that he WAS bulling. It was an abuse of power.
hes not saying he wasn't or it wasn't. he's saying that he couldn't have intimidated shane if he tried; the guy could've kicked his ass. it was a show of respect, for anyone who thinks he actually made shane look bad. not an excuse.
It’s alright Christian Bale. Nobody’s perfect.
"Not as back breaking"; it might not be as "back breaking" but you require concentration. If not, we all would be Oscar winners. If you are being paid to act in a movie, and you (and the whole production) are stuck in one scene and can't get the scene right not only because you did not nail the acting itself but also because of other people mistakes it will more likely make you angry. Still JUST as Bale said: It was unjustified.
I acted like a punk
Some people have made many music careers acting like a punk.
Yup
His explanation that he was trying to channel the “Sarah Conner craziness” makes no sense. Yes, she was in an asylum, but everyone thought she was crazy because she kept talking about a robot time traveling to back kill her, and tried to blow up a factory owned by the company that eventually created Skynet. She wasn’t actually crazy. This makes me question if he actually saw Terminator 2, because that’s a pretty obvious plot point....
Kevan B have you seen terminator 2, do you remember the scene when sarah went to kill miles dyson she seemed pretty crazy there
Apparently the themes of the movie went over your heads. She was trying to kill Dyson before he could create Skynet, so he wasn’t exactly innocent, well, at least he wouldn’t be in the future. And the reason she broke down crying is because she almost killed him, she’s upset at herself for not valuing human life, much like Skynet..
@@kevanbaconofficial Except both James Cameron and Linda Hamilton described Sarah Connor as "crazy" in that film. Heck, Linda was the one who famously insisted that her character be "crazy" and would only do the film under that specific condition, to which James Cameron responded, "You wanna be crazy? Yeah, we can make you crazy." Obviously in the context of the film, Sarah had reasons for behaving the way she did, but under broad and simplified terms, it's not inaccurate to describe her character as "crazy".
7:40 i love the way his voice changes when he says 'NEVER'...
im very amused reading all the hate comments without knowing the whole truth in the set
do you work on set ? I do. just be quiet because you have no idea
@@exposethebad8273 what happened? Because I listened to the tape and he went really far with threatening whoever he was mad at. Can you give some back story if you did indeed work on that film? A lot of people are assuming or interpreting things from the outside looking in.
@@exposethebad8273 did he make him Cry ? I know i would have
doesnt matter. rich ppl get the benefit. imagine if a regular person got angry at their job like that. at my office ( a bank, HR, and potentially cops are called in a situation like that and job is gone on the spot). no sympathy and dont care what his reasons are. be smarter. else you dont deserve the luck (and skills) you were given in life.
I have no sympathy for a guy capable of hitting his own mom
He handled the situation well. Respect reearned.
It does sound like a sincere apology. We all lose our shit sometimes.
The only thing that truly bothered me about this is that he said he "couldn't bully Shane if he tried" because Shane is "huge" and "an ex-football player". As if it's impossible to bully someone bigger than you. Size doesn't define bullying.
His accent here sounds so different to the accent during the rage audio lol
its all just words, he just doesn't want his career ruined
This guy is a professional actor, remember that.
@@mtt3000 That comment was 7 months ago, remember that.
I want to adopt Christian Bale and rub his belly every night as he's trying to fall asleep.
What the fuck is wrong with you, ya freak? Haha.
No really are you okay.?
I know this is a little late, but, uhh... that's real specific. And I appreciate that!
Are you Gay???
lol wtf!!
Belly to helly rub ? And patt his bum?
Christian is one of the few great actors remaining. His apology was genuine, unlike most celebs.
I agree. Most celebs act out their apology even.
His immediate family would disagree.
I feel that he is a man for doing this, sure his tantrum was horrible but hes human. Who the fuck doesnt flip out from time to time, i think it was genuine
come on you sheep, he´s only being sorry because the tape got out!
Exactly what I was saying! These fans are giving him a free pass because he played a great Batman.
Check the bottom of the description in the original freakout video and it seems much more reasonable on his part, to* be* fair.
Edit: The second video with subtitles, the original has no context in the desc for whatever reason.
This happened like 10 years ago lol. We all have some bad days and just take it out on others without meaning it. I mean I have my fair share of snapping at people and not meaning it and apologizing afterwards. He seems really sorry tbh. I mean it was shitty what he did but he was probably stressed. And no I'm not even a fan of his Batman (he's okay but Heath Ledger was the real star of Dark Knight for me).
He literally said they made friends again long before the tapes, of course he has to come out and apologize whether he meant it or not because it influenced the sales of the movie and his image. The fact you're even trying to bring this up again after 10 years is pretty hilarious.
Oh. I know he has anger issues.
Thanks for posting this!
I say good for him for stepping up and calling in to give his thoughts on it all.
I hope everyone can listen to this and realise he is just a person who cracked under the stress and admitted he fucked up, and was able to even make fun of himself a little.
Good for him, I think even more of him now as a person as well as an actor.
Isn't this the classiest apology you ever heard from a celebrity?
Hey you know, he owned up to it. You gotta give him credit for that.
6:20 theres your reason why he made or was made to make that public apology
"It NEVER came CLOSE to being physical!"
Tape: "Oh that's it I'm gonna kick your f***ing ass, (knocks green-screen Terminator stand-in over with solid piece of prop)" 🤔
@MARSHALL ROBINSON No, I didn't realize. So it's not Bale, or it's not a radio station, both? Is there not a KROQ cos those are fantastic call letters for a music station lol.
@MARSHALL ROBINSON Ah I see... I was trying to understand my comment from 3yrs ago since this call is all audio. But I looked up the incident on other channels and saw the green screen that I thought was real. Pretty funny actually.
I don't buy his explanation.. 'Jared Leto method acting' - it all just comes off as movie stardom. "You don't know what it's like being around actors, that's what it is. I'm TELLING you!"
I mean I get the DP might have been distracting, that's a reasonable bitch, but they all got a job to do. And the actor ends up looking good. If the lighting sucks the 'movie star' would bitch even harder lol.
Anyways.
The amount of times I’ve nearly lost my shit on my coworkers is unreal. Anyone who says they haven’t come close to snapping like Christian obviously has never worked very long hours in a stressful environment where you, as an individual, play a huge role in the success of an end project.
You are out of control. You are weak. You are abusing your position of authority. See a therapist before you end up in prison because of your childish temper.
oh and in the one with the temper 🤣 it’s just an opinion chill
@@jerrytaylor4800 it's completely normal to feel frustrated, and it's completely normal for frustration to build up in stressful environments, maybe you need some empathy
He sounds like a sincere guy, and nice that he put over Shane :)
Bale makes good movies not excuses
let’s hear paul’s apology
It's amazing how many people watch the flip out video, but look past the apology. Shit I've freaked out like that on far less serious stuff... I think he's a good man for coming out an apologizing, and a great actor. I will be seeing his new movie.
Passionate people are often misunderstood people.
And the academy award goes to…
Nice. Props for no big repeats of that behaviour.
Brilliant guy.... and one of the best actors of the modern day. Major respect to him for doing this.
Christian Bale is a jerk that is all. But all his fellow actors turned it around like he was the victim. All they are sorry is that it came out to the public.
KingTairun You don’t get to say that man. Who give you the rights of judging people?
This was a very sincere and articulate apology and I really appreciate it(: he's so great and I love him! Awesome actor and an awesome person!
Jarin Bullshit!
It's honestly sad that Bale has a reputation for being such a snob. He's actually one of the more down to earth and funny actors out there.
Have you listened to the things he said to that poor guy? He said terrible things to him, was making threats, and was really scaring him. At the moment I heard that tape I lost all respect I had for Christian Bale.
he apparently went to the guy's trailer and apologised as soon as he'd calmed down
8:48! "i i i i i i i i i i i deserve it completely" He's one of the machines!!!!
I don't understand why people are still hating on him after his sincere apology. When someone makes a mistake and is deeply sorry about his mistake and repents for it, you're supposed to forgive the person! Why do people so deeply judge him for such a humanly mistake as if they have NEVER made a mistake in their lives. This really makes him a great guy in my eyes for totally realizing his mistakes.
There seems to be a pattern of C. bale having "anger issues". In london just before the dark knight premiere, he apparently blew up at his mom and sister. The police were called, battery as well I believe. Seems he has more then "just a bad" day....
Why was everyone freaking out? It's like they expect famous people to act perfect all the time.
Sounds genuine to me. Everybody has those moments.
A true man admits that he was wrong after making a mistake. I have great respect for you Christian. Good job!
I always thought the worst of him ever after that Tirade...But watching this i forgive him. He was a preffered batman tbh
Actors like to use this "I was my character at that moment" excuse so much just to get away with be a shitty person. Just own up to it apologize and change your behavior.
he both apologized, owned up to it (repeatedly) and changed his behavior. the radio hosts even gave him an easy way out ("u deserve your confidentiality regardless of what you did!") and he still responded with humility and grace ("that's still no excuse for my bad behavior.") not sure wtf you're on about or what clip u just listened to.
Oh, so he's English again.
...oh, oh wait...back to American. Nevermind...
In his lame Batman voice..."What an asshole"
You misspelled "awesome"
Niklas Olofson "What an awesome"? That doesn't make any sense!
PlayersMind in his "awesome" Batman voice, not lame
Niklas Olofson I know. I was trying to be funny for the first time in ten years. Clearly I didn't nail it.
Oh. Well, you're last comment got me giggling. *SUCCESS*!!!
Even though no one really cares about this anymore, he still is extremely regretful and genuine. Even when the radio hosts say that its unfair it was released bc there should be privacy on set, Christian still immediately says he gets what theyre saying but its absolutely no excuse and privacy on sets doesnt mean its there to cover up bad behavior. Every single person on earth has done something out of anger they regret and 95% of us never had it recorded and put out in the public.
I skeptical of anything coming out of the mouth of an actor especially when he/she knows its being heard.
@HxCSounds He is a method actor, method actors live their part, they remain in character even when the cameras aren't rolling. They also bring in there own struggles in life to fead the part they are playing. During the entire filming of the Fighter he never spoke with this voice on or off camera that is why he is so committed and the sign of a great method actor.
Shane Hurlbut is a phenomenal DP. The best part of that movie was the cinematography. Period.
See, kids? THIS is how you legitimately apologize - none of this "sorry you feel that way" crap. That's just stroking your own bruised ego, without actual regret for your mistakes, on your behalf...and you're not even really sorry for them in the first place, anyway, with that attitude - it's completely dishonest. Instead of humbling oneself, "sorry you feel that way" is just a means for the person to continue in arrogance, while being wilfully ignorant, refusing to learn from their mistakes. As if, at all costs, that person must always be right - they can never be wrong. It's quite a sad reality that we live in, in this modern day, where we actually have to explain this stuff to people. I would say, that the world has indeed, "lost its youth."
He owned up to his mistake and apologized like a fucking man. What more do people want? There are so many people on this comment section that are so unforgiving. Like they never made a mistake. Why is everyone out for flesh? So disturbing.
as a professional who's getting paid millions of dollars for such job of his choice he has no right to go like that, human yes, you don't feel well take a break, go home, relax for a bit, but don't pour your nerves on other people
komz exactly. I work with actors and models regularly. Divas man. Divas.
You have no idea. 1. Its his art , that he takes very very serious. 2. Every day of shooting costs a ridiculous amount of money. The DP - a very important role- made a major faux pas for the 2nd time - and he is a diva because he understandably freaks out for 5 minutes, and probably later apologized for the foul language ?
People fuck up. Own it, appologize and learn from it.
Even if he's sincere he still has, or hopefully only used to have, a problem. "It's that I care too much" is the exact thing abusive hubands say to their wives.
If this tape hadn't come out HE WOULD NEVER HAVE APOLOGIZED.
ofc you wouldn't wanna make a fuss when you get in trouble don't you?
Why would he apologise publicly for something that isn't public knowledge? I don't have an opinion either way on how sincere he is but from what he says this was resolved privately. So he probably did apologise to the people that mattered. Just not publicly, cause it'd be weird if he did.
He's a douche, still. Just gross behavior. If this were in an office he would've been fired and carted out by security
i love him, this is so genuine
bale is a class act, i love this guy man
RUclips is on a roll with the decade old videos
I gotta say I'm impressed with his explanation here. Yes, he's a famous actor and yes, he could be bullshitting for PR purposes but he sounds sincere. He sounds like he truly understands that he lost it and regrets it. This has restored my respect for him.
We've all been there. We've all exploded like that in certain situations and then realised we screwed up. It takes real integrity to acknowledge that mistake publicly and learn from it.
Way to man up, Christian.
@HxCSounds
The guy was born in Wales, lived in Portugal, grew up in Britain and moved to America. Plus the fact he's an actor who uses different accents its not hard to see why he doesn't know which country he's in
I think his apology is very genuine and heart felt. If it was just an attempt to save his career and wasn't sorry at all, he wouldn't have gone so far to apologize over and over again. I throughly believe him when he says that he puts a lot of work in his acting and I know that when you care so much about something, you can loose your temper easier. You can really see in his movies how much he cares for it and how much effort he puts in them and I really really love those movies :-)
sounds irish when he's mad, english when he's docile
You "believe" him.... HE'S AN ACTOR... FOR A LIVING!
I heard that the set guy actually did fuck up though. Bale is under a lot of pressure. He's the lead in the film. I don't think people take this into consideration.
Have any of you ever been placed under real stressed and gotten angry under pressure? Have any of you any idea the pressure most of this actors are under?
He was able to be a man, appologise, laugh at himself with the radio hosts. He is a good guy who got a little angry, calm all yo' shits.
He was praising everyone else far more than he was himself!
I totally agree with you. If anybody normal pulls this they get fired and called an asshole, if christian bale does it people call him a gentleman for apologizing. What the fuck else would he do, an apology is the very least for flipping out the people that make you look great because of one slipup. The guy that did it apologized immediately after and repedeately again and again, I dont see him going on talk shows and being called a gentleman for apologizing
All is forgiven Christian 💖
A big man indeed for owning up to it Mr. Bale. A good example set. I've lost it with folks many times and the douchebag feeling always comes quickly afterwards.
He’s a VERY intense person and it’s going to come out through the seams when he’s stressed.
Great post. This just proves that he is not too Hollywood. And I like the end where he addresses that whole thing regarding Michael Phelps.
Seeing his rant. I can see where it was part character and part him. Especially in the part where he says along the lines of "if you are wandering, it breaks me out of character, ya know?!" That right there was exactly Christian just... Upset. And I get it. While rest it's kinda unclear if it was the character or him talking or both.
I like these kinds of actors. But sometimes you gotta tread carefully especially when these kinds of actors are playing "born from crazy" characters like Christian was playing.
Bale is such a class act. 'Potty-mouth'--I love it!
