Christian Bale believes Robert Pattinson is a good choice for the Batman role

September 10, 2019 by Liam Waddington


Christian Bale believes Robert Pattinson is a good choice as the new Batman in the upcoming Matt Reeves directed film, The Batman.

In a recent interview with Variety during the Toronto International Film Festival, where he was promoting his upcoming movie Ford v Ferrari, Bale said:

“Oh, good. Good choice, he’s interesting. I’m sure he’ll come up with something interesting.”

Bale’s co-star on Ford v Ferrari, Matt Damon added, “Did you see the Safdie brothers movie [Good Time] that he did? He’s fantastic. He’s really good.”

Additionally, when Bale was asked if he had any advice for Pattinson, who is preparing to don the iconic Batsuit, he said, “Oh, same as for Ben Affleck. Just be able to pee by yourself. You don’t feel much like a superhero when you can’t take a piss by yourself.”
