Actors are known to go through copious amounts of work to get that perfect body for a movie. From heavy gym training to a strict diet, they try everything. But what if the role requires the opposite?
We’ve all heard Aamir Khan’s famous transformation for Dangal or Rajkumar Rao’s for Bose. And now we bring to you another, that will equally blow your mind!
Christian Bale, from the mega-successful Batman trilogy, is almost unrecognisable in his new avatar. The Academy Award winner is known to morph his body into roles and this time he’s done it for his upcoming film, Backseat.
Seriously, I can’t believe it’s even the same person!
The chameleon in him is going to be playing the role of Dick Cheney — who was arguably the most powerful Vice President in history. And, it was for this iconic role that Bale has put on these extra pounds.
Twitter too is shocked by Bale’s new look. People have been sharing his pictures and are spinning humourous twists on it.

2. You’re comparing yourself to the Batman, that’s some pressure to live up to.
