Christian Bale Opens Up His Weight Gain To Play Dick Cheney
Christian Bale is always going to commit to whatever character he’s playing, even if that means playing Dick Cheney.
During the after party of the Critics’ Choice Awards last week, insiders from Page Six said that Jerry Bruckheimer hosted a private screening of Hostiles, and Christian Bale, who stars as Dick Cheney in the upcoming Backseat, was there.
“He is 25 pounds lighter,” said an impressed source. “He really ballooned for the role and he’s halfway back.” Bale was overheard explaining the most he has weighed in a film was 230 pounds and the least was 130.
