Christian Bale to Quit Batman?
Movie Celebrity Gossip – Christian Bale is reportedly set to hang up his cape as Batman. The actor s said to be “unlikely” to star in a third movie as the Caped Crusader after learning that close friend and director Chris Nolan may not be at the helm to complete the trilogy.
“Chris is in the mindset that he is unlikely to be able to top what was achieved with Dark Knight,” reveals a Hollywood insider. “He has a number of new projects he’s working on and Batman is not a priority for him right now.
“Christian is unlikely to want to do another one without Chris. He feels only he understands the dynamic of the character and so it could well be that there will have to be a new Batman and director if there is to be a third movie.”
Bale, 35, recently revealed that he doesn’t read tabloid tales about his life.
“The gossip doesn’t affect me, because I don’t know what things are being said, or what gossipy stuff is going on,” he said. “My life is much happier when I ignore that. As for other people, that’s their choice. If they want to embrace that, then they’re going to sacrifice enjoyment in the movies. I really believe that. But it’s their choice, if that’s what they love looking at. I don’t get it.”
