Vanaf volgende week draait hij dan eindelijk in de bioscopen: Christopher Nolans Batman Begins. Latino Review had een interview met The Caped Crusader in eigen persoon: Christian Bale.
[eng]When the role was first offered to you what was the first thing that went through your mind?
"It had been a long process because for me it started when I was given a graphic novel of ARKHAM ASYLUM in about 2000 and kind of begrudgingly read it because I just had never been into comics or anything and just had no interested in them what so ever and also I hadnt seen much interest in the character Batman before. And that was what first opened my eyes and I went on to read Batman Year One and then The Dark Victory, The Long Halloween. I realized that he was a really great character, a dark severe character unlike anything that I had realized he can be before. So thats when I first thought to myself: I really want to play this character."[/eng]
