Could Christian Bale receive a big offer to return as Batbale in a future Justice League movie?
It looks like there may still be hope that Christian Bale could return as Gotham's finest in the Batman / Superman film.
A new ebook, " Beyond Batman: The Unauthorized True Story of Christian Bale and His Dark Knight Dilemma," suggests the actor is being offered up to $50 million to reprise his role of the Caped Crusader.
The book comes from Vince Russel who simultaneously put out another unauthorized biography of WWE's Phil Brooks earlier this month.
The excerpts that sparked the fervor occur between author Vince Russel and a Legendary Pictures insider who speculates Bale could receive a big pay day to return as the dark knight.
Via The Press Association:
"Why would Christian Bale walk away from what is certainly going to be either the first or second highest grossing movie in the history of cinema?
"He could probably make 50 million dollars for being in the movie 20 minutes. And it would be worth every penny to the studio."
"Sources close to Christian Bale have reportedly begun expressing their suspicions that Bale now views the Batman films in the same light that Robert Downey Jr views the Iron Man films."
The latter isn't a surprise as we've previously said Bale is to Warner Bros. and the Batman franchise as Robert Downey Jr. is to Marvel's "Iron Man" legacy.
Just to be clear, a lot of people are running with the report that Warner Bros. has actually offered Bale $50 million to return in the role. That doesn't seem to be the case.
Rather, it's just someone speculating that Bale could get that much money to appear in the film. Robert Downey Jr. reportedly earned $50 million for his role in last year's "The Avengers."
The price for the actor paid off when the film went on to earn more than $1.5 billion at theaters worldwide .
Downey Jr. has since re-signed with Disney and Marvel to appear in two more "Avengers" films.
Previously, Bale told Entertainment Weekly he won't be in any "Justice League" movie unless Christopher Nolan approached him with an idea.
Currently, The Hollywood Reporter says a few middle-aged actors including Joe Manganiello ("True Blood) and Ryan Gosling are up for the role as the Caped Crusader in the Batman/Superman movie due out in 2015. That would still leave room for Bale to return as Batman in the future if one of these other men play a different version of Bats (think Batman Beyond).

Tired of making them and being personified as Tony Stark
He wanted some new talent to take over the mantle of Tony Stark

Hah good! They must've offered him a crapload since he was so tired of Ironman after doing Iron Man 3.
Avengers 2 and 3 then! Good
Hope Bale becomes as tempted by the 50 mill offer
-
Bale would be a fucking retard not to do it. A real actor would own the batman role. Downey Jr. is Iron man, and bale is batman. Bale should be flattered that people love him in the role.

Regarding the article, How does "Downey view the iron man movies"?
That once he made a "tent pole" franchise, that even if he tired from playing the role, he was in it for the long haul.
To get back to topic, if Nolan approaches Bale, Bale will come back. Like the, article suggests, Bale in just 20 mins of the film, will easily put this movie, in the top 1-2 grossing movies of all time. (So Warner will easily cut him a blank check, or Bale, a cut of the gross (like Keanu reeves got for the Matrix) or hell, even both, with Bale making a cool $100-$150mil (if the movie is tha successful)
It would be real cool to see Bale and Cavill face off in my view.
-
Man...actors seem like such babies. "I'm so tired of being tony stark, blah blah blah." Make your 50 Mill and be grateful.

Yeah Keanu made 80+ million off of the Matrix trilogy. Why scoff at the people who made you?

True, but he was one of the pioneers to pick the "back end profits clause". He made a big gamble back then. I think he made shit for an actual salary. Jack banked on the box office.

He got 6 million fixed fee, then cumulative box office earnings.

I actually don't give a shit about Bale as Batman to be honest.
He's not the best batman ever, so who gives a damn.
Lots of good actors could be Batman and be just as good, hell... most would be better.
Christian Bale is "meh" as far as I'm concerned.

I wanna see Jay Cutler play batman in the movie. That'd be excellent.

I agree with you. Bale seems like he is above everyone. Dude, take a boatload of cash, and play the role you are most known for.

What's funny is that Bale can afford to turn down 50 mill USD for something he can play without any effort at all :D
I can understand him turning something down if he felt that the role/character was too difficult/that he couldn't do the character justice etc, but the Batman-character must be the most effortless and easiest thing to do for Bale , something he could do in his sleep.
I could also understand him turning a role down if he felt that it would tarnish his career.
But let's face it, Bale has become synonymous with the modern Batman as well as Downey with Stark.
How hard can it be? And for 50 mill to boot.
I'd say Make an effort for the fans Bale! Even if you think the role is boring!

Its all for the fans Kwon! Who is Bale to turn it down? His head is obviously getting to big. Maybe he should do the Machinist 2 ::)

I mean, for 50 mill even I would give the role of Batman a shot, but it is quite unlikely they would want to have my undieted self playing that role! :D

Lets be real here. The guy is a decent actor. What is he most known for? Batman and American Psycho (more of a cult classic) He does not have a plethora of great movies. He needs to strike while the iron is hot.

Even still, he can afford to turn movies down considering all he's made so far.
I understand if he's tired of being synonymous with Batman...
You know actors can be quirky and wants to be "challenged" and play "intelligent challenging" roles etc.. :D

Those movies aren't even good.

This. Who gives a shit who plays Batman, like he's the only good actor in the world

nolans batman films are overrated, begins was the best which is what keaton wanted to do instead of forever back in 94.
Bale to me is just ok, very overrated too. keaton had him on mannerisms, expression, the way he moved as batman and of course the bat voice, bale's voice is ridiculous as batman.
Sod bale give somone else a chance to shine
-
So lets see. These actors work hard to make it big, and make big money. They find a role that they exceed at, and the pay is immense.
And once they get there they want to give it back because they're sick of it?
So much for thinking ahead...
::)
-

For 50 million, I will play Wonder Woman getting railed by Batman.

Kevin Sorbo as Batman...just cut his hair and dye it black.

Exactly, he wears a fucking mask!!! It's Justice League, Bruce Wayne isn't in it only Batman!!

Van Damme for Batman!!!!

Chin is far too massive.

If he really was offered 50 million, there's no way he would turn that down...His whole net worth right now is reportedly 60 million. The people around him wouldn't allow him to turn that down. No way...

now, bale did say, if nolan was on board, he'd think hard on it. so there is some light at the end of the tunnel.
scott did a screen test. i think he is the only guy if they are going to play with the idea of batman battling the current version of superman who can literally fly in space.

Pity about him finding that russian woman and spending/wasting so much money on that ordeal, he wasted alot of energy and braincells as well

it comes down to this, for bale...
His desire for "art" > $50mil + what the fans want.

Well, he can afford to act that way, he's set for life
It's all a matter of wanting to spend a certain time playing Batman or using that time to do something more (in his mind) more intriguing.

$50 million for turning and saying some lines without laughing.
Its a hard life being an actor.

20 minutes of screen time... how many days on the set of actual 'acting" would that be?
I've only seen a little of the batman movies... it's pretty stiff/constipated acting, right? Not exactly Bale in tears, tough and convincing acting. Just reading plain dialogue and acting all stoic?

Maybe he feels that it is "beneath" him... :D
and that 50 mill isn't good enough for him!

not sure, has bale been offered tons of plum roles that he had to turn down to do the previous or future batman movies or upcoming assemble movies (i.e superman and batman,justice league, etcetera)..
i can see if he didn't want to be typecast forever as batman, but if he has no incredible roles being offered to him or that will be offered to him why not take the money and run?
i remember reading don't know if this true that megan fox turned down the role of Wonder Woman because she didn't want to be typecast! laugh! yeah, because she is up for all those meryl streep great acting needed or starring roles that go to julia roberts movies! laugh! if this is true, talk about a delusional woman! your looks and bod are the ONLY THING you have going for you Megan NEWSFLASH! and even for that you should be grateful since god knows in lala land hollywood/southern california a drop dead gorgeous looking woman with a incredible body is as common as grass being green!
i think nicholson was the 1st actor to get the whole back end salary off the movie profits idea.. i know the actor who has seemingly got this down to a science and has made bukoo bucks is tom cruise. i thought i read for the latest mission impossible he made 75 million plus?! cruise hasn't taken a "upfront salary only" in years. preferring to make a salary based on the film profits, he's still the biggest movie star WORLDWIDE thus he makes upwards of 30,40 million for each movie.

Sean Connery was previously considered to play "Gandalf" in Lord of the Ring series......he turned it down.....I'm sure Connery regretted turning this role down up to this day......they were offering him a 15% of the entire series Gross which would have come up to a salary around $400million....OUCH!!!!...... ;D...
Connery stated in interviews that he was offered a role in The Lord of the Rings series, declining it due to "not understanding the script." CNN reported that the actor was offered up to 15% of the worldwide box office receipts to play Gandalf, which had he accepted, could have earned him as much as $400 million for the trilogy
-
Don't believe everything you read, or at least in Hollywood, learn to read between the lines. Bale balking at the deal means they haven't offered him enough money yet, meaning there isn't a solid in writing or verbal offer on the table that fits him. Publicly letting this out, which was obviously intentional, can give him leverage in making a better deal, it can also backfire, but in this case with such an established individual, it would be a huge gamble to go with anyone except Bale, and he knows that. The studio put out they were also considering Orlando Bloom for the Batman vs. Superman movie, which was probably a counter to Bale's statement.
It's all bullshit, that's all you need to know. Bale will accept the role once the studio ponies up enough bones.
-
The Bale Batman won't work in this new world of Superman IMHO. The Bale Batman was very smart, but not a genius....you need to think Tony Stark level of intelligence (well, close to that) for the new Batman. This Batman needs something the Bale Batman lacked.....a ton of big time gadgets. If Batman is going to put Superman on his back (even once) he'll need more than batarangs and hydraulic cable shooters. Think lasers and missles from satellites, weaponized drones, chemical weapons, etc....The Bale Batman ended his series with very little cash, a badly busted wheel, a busted up back and no desire to continue on as Batman. Batman gotta have BIG TIME funds like Tony Stark has to fund Iron Man.....Batman can't be millionaire, Batman gotta be an enormous multi-billionaire....Bale Batman wasn't that when the series ended. Plus, there's no kryptonite in current Superman movie. Not saying it won't surface, but so far this Superman can't be stopped. Bale Batman almost got put down by far less than comic book style version of Bane. Comic book was had far greater superhuman strength than Nolan's Bane. What's Bale Batman gonna do against the MOS?
-
Kryptonite will definately be introduced later on, be it Bale, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer or Danny DeVito playing Bats
-

I don't see how it can't be introduced honestly. No Kryptonite and there's virtually nothing that can stop the MOS. A red sun, ok fine...I'll concede that. That said, a Bale Batman would need kryptonite and the ability to create red sunlight or filter the sunlight heading to earth turning it into red sunlight so at the very least Superman is powered waaaaaaaaaaaaaay down. That ain't gonna happen, so we needs some kryptonite that Batman can carry around like he does in the books.

Kryptonite wasn't introduced because they are saving that for Lex Luther.

Who is the best Lex Luthor though?
Mark Strong?

Kryptonite wasn't introduced because they are saving that for Lex Luther.
I can see that being a definite possibility.
Still, the new Batman has to have mega-powered weaponry......MEGA POWERED. Stark's Iron Man suits....meh. MOS would tear through those like they were construction paper. No kryptonite present, then they have to invent something so powerful Batman can harness to put the MOS on his back. Tumblers, Batcyles, Batwings....all cool, but won't do it.
Batman needs something with the power of the Jericho missle the Tony Stark "let off the chain" in the first Iron Man movie to combat Superman. Even then it will only slow him down a bit LOL. Batman needs to harness nuclear power.

Bale best batman eva. thread.

it s a bit more complicated than that, being labeled as mr batman could really hurt potential next role oportunities so he could lose money in the long term. You guys have no clue.

Like he isn't already labelled as Mr Batman lol
Accepting one or two more Batman-movies won't change a thing regarding his current status.
He will still be offered non-superhero roles after he's done with bats

Can some geek explain this premise. So Batman and Superman aren't friends or part of the JL? That the first time they cross paths they fight? How is this a prequel to a potential JL movie?
-
apparantly there is no official word that this will be a "vs" film, it's the man of steel sequel and batman is making an appearance.
This should have waited until later imo, man of steel was mediocre and the new superman needs to find his footing in another outing or two before batman is introduced along side him.
-
Thats why you have to control everything like Mel Gibson. He made hundreds of millions off of Passion of the Christ. :o
Yeah, he ended up finding it himself and made like $300 million from that movie.
-
You guys are fucking idiots. Bale is looking to be the next alpacino. He controls his career, and doesn`t wanna fuck it up. I love how he`s the batman guy, when most nonfucktards know him from the machinist, the fighter, terminator(which has burned him on taking money). Not to mention about 15 other films he`s been in.
-
i hate how batman is incapable of killing a bad guy when justified. I mean, just pump a few rounds into the joker in the street, and avoid all that jail escape bullshit.
same with 2-face upon the roof, that aaron actor, not sure of the bad guy. just pump a few rounds into him already. What's the problem. Instead it has to be all dramatic.
I hate shows like that. REAL superheros are like the punisher... they fcking end the bad guys as soon as they have the chance. That's it. None of this honor shit. Which bad guy was falling off a roof after SWAT came, and batman caught him? let that fcker fall.
-
Chis Balitto is a good actor for sure a bit psycho in real life but good actor
-
beyond stupid and unrealistic if the powers that be DO make it at least at the beginning of the movie a supeman vs batman fight?
love the batman character, but c'mon comic fans, movie fans and geeks think intelligently and be realistic as much as one can when discussing fictional characters., i don't care what there is no way/no how on this planet that a mortal man no matter how stronger, faster, more intelligent than most other mortal men on the planet and devices at his disposal can even momentarily be able to put down on his back A GOD that is MOS...
yeah, the old kryptonite storyline. it's bad enough when the comic writers themselves can't make up their mind on how it affects superman. what i mean is sometimes it's a tiny little rock that can fit into a ring? sometimes it has to be a big ole chunk like a small boulder that affects him? sometimes it's written it affects him immediately weakening him in literally a few seconds ( which i don't buy and think that is unrealistic) and sometimes it's written it takes minutes and of course the only thing that it's written that DOES make sense in the comics is that eventually the radiation will kill him if exposed long enough and enough is use...
anyway, either way even if batman had kryptonite on him in a fight, by the time it would take to weaken superman waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ay i said waaaaaaaaaaaaaay down, superman with a flick of 1 finger or a simple exhalation of 1 breath would knock batman's head off!
using kryptonite and at the same time super powerful missels that hit him and other devices would be too late in a batman superman fight. if anything from a hundred yards away superman could burn him to a crisp and a spot on the ground with his heat vision! or at least burn him with "warning"s hots and so no need for superman to get close enough for any K to affect him and thus batman backing down!
of course all this common sense wouldn't work for the audience who love batman and want to see a fight and action between the two.
kind of like that whole avengers movie, because everyone loves ironman and robert downey jr and he was the biggest star in that movie, they had it to where ironman could battle with THOR! yeah his human man made of this planet armor could withstand thor?! laugh!even captain america's shield was able to block the hammer of a norse god. a shield made by humans able to deflect the weapon/object from other universe and one of the most powerful weapons in the universe? not to mention the godly strength only second to superman behind that hammer?! oh please! why not make all the tanks and other weapons on this planet the same material as the shield them u.s. and other countries? so silly! in truth the only "battle" between batman and superman should be mental and how they go about fighting evil, and perhaps batman being the other opinion on how superman can use his powers that perhaps superman never thought of before. and that is it!!!!
i know in these movies logic goes out the window and that is why so many comic geeks are never satisfied but love the movies anyway.

Superman was established first in Action Comics. Batman was established later in Detective Comics. Eventually Superman and Batman cross paths and Superman swoops down and snatches up the masked vigilante Batman and wants to haul him off to jail. This established the early riff between the two. Later the DC brand took over and both characters fall underneath. Superman and Batman did establish the primary JLA that most associate with later on. The riff eventually became a solid friendship hence the World's Finest pairing that has become very popular today.

Just messin' with ya MOS :D

beyond stupid and unrealistic if the powers that be DO make it at least at the beginning of the movie a supeman vs batman fight?
love the batman character, but c'mon comic fans, movie fans and geeks think intelligently and be realistic as much as one can when discussing fictional characters., i don't care what there is no way/no how on this planet that a mortal man no matter how stronger, faster, more intelligent than most other mortal men on the planet and devices at his disposal can even momentarily be able to put down on his back A GOD that is MOS...
yeah, the old kryptonite storyline. it's bad enough when the comic writers themselves can't make up their mind on how it affects superman. what i mean is sometimes it's a tiny little rock that can fit into a ring? sometimes it has to be a big ole chunk like a small boulder that affects him? sometimes it's written it affects him immediately weakening him in literally a few seconds ( which i don't buy and think that is unrealistic) and sometimes it's written it takes minutes and of course the only thing that it's written that DOES make sense in the comics is that eventually the radiation will kill him if exposed long enough and enough is use...
anyway, either way even if batman had kryptonite on him in a fight, by the time it would take to weaken superman waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ay i said waaaaaaaaaaaaaay down, superman with a flick of 1 finger or a simple exhalation of 1 breath would knock batman's head off!
using kryptonite and at the same time super powerful missels that hit him and other devices would be too late in a batman superman fight. if anything from a hundred yards away superman could burn him to a crisp and a spot on the ground with his heat vision! or at least burn him with "warning"s hots and so no need for superman to get close enough for any K to affect him and thus batman backing down!
of course all this common sense wouldn't work for the audience who love batman and want to see a fight and action between the two.
kind of like that whole avengers movie, because everyone loves ironman and robert downey jr and he was the biggest star in that movie, they had it to where ironman could battle with THOR! yeah his human man made of this planet armor could withstand thor?! laugh!even captain america's shield was able to block the hammer of a norse god. a shield made by humans able to deflect the weapon/object from other universe and one of the most powerful weapons in the universe? not to mention the godly strength only second to superman behind that hammer?! oh please! why not make all the tanks and other weapons on this planet the same material as the shield them u.s. and other countries? so silly! in truth the only "battle" between batman and superman should be mental and how they go about fighting evil, and perhaps batman being the other opinion on how superman can use his powers that perhaps superman never thought of before. and that is it!!!!
i know in these movies logic goes out the window and that is why so many comic geeks are never satisfied but love the movies anyway.
;D
Thank you. The green rock don't turn him completely mortal like his home world atmosphere.
Even with the rock in Metallo's chest, MOS still wouldn't be reduced to a human.
That punch he hit Metallo with at :35 would have knocked Batman's head off. ;D He can still lift a damn car too. ;D Oh, and as noted, the heat vision works well. ;D

the thought of a batman/superman movie angers me. i want to punch walls or kick Big Wheels or something.

Nah, Christian Bale is the best.

If it weren't only that simple. Check out Wikipedia for a full run down on Kryptonite. There is red, green, yellow, black, gold etc... They ran with this shit.

I actually don't give a shit about Bale as Batman to be honest.
He's not the best batman ever, so who gives a damn.
Lots of good actors could be Batman and be just as good, hell... most would be better.
Christian Bale is "meh" as far as I'm concerned.
I agree!
Bale is a little douche bag

The rock doesn't change his physiology, so you can't just walk up to him and lead him to a pool of water. LOL. They got their work cut out. And Zod's armor doesn't protect joints because he still had to be able to move. That was the issue with Dark Knights' suit, giving it soft spots so he could move freely. And it's not the armor but the man, Zod, inside of it. His strength didn't change with it on.
Nolan doesn't want magic and scifi, so you cant have Metallo b/c humans don't have the ability to create a half man/machine like him.

Van Damme for Batman!

Theres talk, apparently serious talk that Avengers 2 will lay the foundation for Planet Hulk to come to the big screen - which will then spawn World War Hulk. If done correctly these will be among the top 10 highest grossing movies ever. Forever.

What about Marvel Zombies? Surprised the studios have not pimped out the zombie craze.
