In the build up to the highly- anticipated film, Christian Bale has dished the dirt on his THE DARK KNIGHT RISES co-stars.
Speaking to the Phillippine daily Inquirer Bale said “I’m terrible at auditions, so I’m very impressed when somebody really seems to acquire an ownership of a character without having worked on it or prepared for some amount of time. I saw that in Anne,” he told the newspaper about Anne Hathaway “In many ways, she has the hardest job. There are a number of people who feel that the Catwoman role has been defined previously. So, I always saw Anne’s role as being the toughest job of any of us.”
About Tom Hardy, who plays Bane, Bale added that he is “a phenomenal actor. I like working with him a great deal. He goes the whole hog. I know that Bane has been seen in movies before. But, in my eyes, Tom is essentially creating Bane for the first time so there’s great freedom for him to be able to do so.”
And about Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bale said that “Joseph is a very intriguing guy… He’s somebody who truly seems to love acting. He’s a good, smart guy. He did a very good job in the movie.”
He also talked briefly about Christopher Nolan’s Batman. “We always maintained from the beginning that if you wanted to break it down, there are three personas – Batman is sincere, the private Bruce Wayne is sincere. The public version of Bruce Wayne, the playboy, is a completely fabricated performance.”
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES is directed by Christopher Nolan and will be released in UK cinemas on 20 July 2012.
