Bale in The Machinist was crazy!
keredogDec 20, 2010
The guy doesn't get enough recognition for how insanely dedicated he was in his transformation.
The guy went on a crash diet of mostly apples and coffee, and dropped nearly 70 lbs in a couple months. He was 121 lbs at 6'2. A couple months later, he had to gain weight for Batman and gained 100 lbs in 6 months. Apparently the first day of training, he couldn't even perform a single push up because he had lost so much muscle mass.

How on earth did they cast him as batman while he looked like that for the machinist??
whatsleftofyouDec 20, 2010
What they don't talk about is he did The Machinist and then Batman Begins IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARD. Insane...

Stallone also took a lot of steroids for his 'transformations' in the Rocky films - especially in the later ones.

In years to come he will suffer the consequences of using steroids..
chestrockwellDec 21, 2010
Really? When is "years to come" the dude is 70...I don't think anyone should point to him as the poster child for "see what happens when you do steroids"

The things we do to make money.

Some of the them just have to eat healthy and get muscular while others have to gain weight, wow..
i4visualmediaDec 20, 2010
yeah it must be ver hard for them
myself I find it hard to do either of those things anyway.
but I'm guessing they have 'experts' to help, with all that money

What they did to Charlize Theron is such a shame!
rukobloodDec 20, 2010
Yeah, but at least she got Oscar for that movie, didn't she?

The first Christian Bale was terrible, the Tom Hanks pics were terrible comparisons, and also the Ed Norton ones were terrible to compare
martoqDec 21, 2010
They didn't do it justice for what Hanks went through for that movie. He lost a lot more weight than they are saying. Not as much as Bale but close because he was actually a good 50lbs overweight in the beginning of the shooting.

Did anyone else think this was rubbish?

Matt Damon and Christian Bale are totally skinny!

This is amazing. I knew about the various Body by Bale fluctuations, but didn't really think about Tom Hanks and how that must've been.

Man, people can really transform their bodies!

No mention of 50 cent in his upcoming Things Fall Apart? Most drastic change I've seen... http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/100527/50-cent-2_320.jpg and http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/100527/50-cent_240.jpg

Hillary Swank should have gotten complete facial plastic surgery instead. She is just fugly.

How about DeNiro for "Raging Bull?" Got buff for Jake Lamotta's fighting prime and gained a lot of weight for his retirement body. Also, got in great shape for "Cape Fear."

it's crazy what some actors go through just for a part
