British actor Christian Bale thinks Batman is “not a healthy superhero,” branding the caped crusader a “very sad, lonely individual”.
The 38-year-old star reprises his role as Batman and his alter ego Bruce Wayne in the The Dark Knight Rises and says this movie finds the orphaned billionaire in very poor shape.
He said: “He’s filled with remorse, he’s become a recluse, he’s given up and completely quit.
“He’s in very poor health physically and mentally.
“He is not a healthy superhero. He has multiple-personality disorder and is a very sad, lonely individual.”
Bale also admitted he thinks his character could be a “villain” if it weren’t for the altruistic side of his personality.
“He’s almost a villain and takes it to the edge, where he can do no wrong, but he has this altruism holding him back from doing that.
“He has the public persona of the playboy and the character of Batman is the personification of his rage and sense of injustice.”
He added: “The reason he dresses in the Batman suit is that he feels monstrous, so he creates a monster to represent that rage and keep it away from his own personal life.”
Oo-er… It would appear that you and Batman have a lot in common Christian… CUT TO: 2009′s Terminator Salvation on-set rant!
‘Dark Knight Rises’ is playing in theaters now.
