One can argue but for me, Christian Bale is the best ‘Batman’ the world has witnessed. Period. With Christopher Nolan’s ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy, Christian Bale has etched his name as one of the most iconic DC Universe performances.
And now, we can’t help but yell with enthusiasm as Christian Bale is about to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You read that right, it is confirmed that Christian Bale will be playing the role of a villain in MCU’s upcoming ‘Thor: Love And Thunder’, reports Hindustan Times.
According to News18, it was actress Tessa Thompson, who plays the role of Valkyrie, who spilt the news. In an interview, Thompson said:
“I’ve read the script. I can’t tell you much. Lots of exciting text messages exchanged between Natalie and I. We’re going to have fun. Taika is writing (and) directing. Some familiar faces. Some new people coming into the mix. Christian Bale is going to play our villain, which is going to be fantastic.”

#ChristianBale he's gonna be Gorr I'm guessing, other than Ragnorok (which I doubt would be an option after the last film) or Mangog, who else is left?
