With Christian Bale out of the Batman movie universe, would The Dark Knight actor like a return to a superhero role?
Bale says a big no to that idea and offers up he’s not interested in any more superhero films.
No, I’m not interested in doing that. I’ve never seen — I’m trying to think if that’s correct, I think I’m actually correct, I can’t remember a single superhero film that I’ve ever watched. Apart from the ones I made and like, the Christopher Reeve Superman films.
Christian Bale continues with mention that he did enjoy the Donner Superman movies, but hasn’t seen any other comic book flicks.
Yes. Yes, I love those. Other than that, no I’ve never seen anything.
It’s noted how big the comic book movie genre currently is and will only get bigger, but this fails to entice Christian Bale into doing more superhero films.
Right. Yes. I have no understanding of it and I’m completely blind to it.
