What some actors will do for their roles....

If you havent seen the new "Batman Begins" film.... go out and see it... NOW. It simply redefines the comic-book super-hero film genre. Very dramatic, and as believable as such a story can be I'd say. Acting is great--writing is great, and a stellar cast (except for Katie Holmes... she needs to jump off a bridge and drown in Dawson's creek...)
Anyway, Christian Bale does a great job as Batman. A friend of mine at work told me he had to majorly bulk up to play the role, gaining nearly 100 lbs from his prior film. I looked it up and the change is incredible...
Christian Bale as Batman:
Bale in his prior film (released in 2004):
Ya I know they get paid (alot) to do this. And I know they have trainers and dieticians and chefs, etc etc etc.... But its still insane what some actors will do to fit a role...
