An Underweight Champion of the World?
August 17, 2003
Another
Superman contender in Christian Bale apparently though
his track record of flops of late isnt faring well
with the gang at Warner. Ironically, Bales now looking a
mere shadow of himself. No longer looking like healthy superhero
material, Bale, who admits to have lost 22 kg (49 lbs) since
last summer, insists that his weight loss was for his role
as an insomniac in Brad Anderson's indie film The Machinist
which is shooting in Spain. (By way of comparison, Al Pacino
didn't lose any weight to play the title role in Insomnia).
And courtesy one of our most reliable scoopers [who shall
remain anonymous] heres
proof: Bale with his The Machinist
co-star Jennifer Jason Leigh at a press conference in Spain
last month. Not very Super looking hey?
