Wahlberg Parties as Bale Goes AWOL on Fighter Set
Tue., Aug. 18, 2009 10:10 AM PDT by Ted Casablanca and Taryn Ryder
Christian Bale's setting off all kinds of alarms again.
Filming of The Fighter is underway in Massachusetts, and we have a super spy on the set giving us some dee-lish deets. Seems the big three (Bale, Mark Wahlberg and Amy Adams) were all on location at the retro-hip Olympia Restaurant, a frequent hang for past real-life fighters like Mickey Ward.
You remember that perfectionist Bale likes to do things as realistically as possible, right? He's slimmed down dangerously for parts before (like The Machinist), and now the emaciated actor's doing it again.
"[Christian] has lost almost as much weight as he did for The Machinist. He is so gaunt," blab our eyes, standing right next to the Batman star.
Christian plays Dickie Eklund, a former crack addict, so that explains why Bale is so skeletal all of a sudden. "They have even thinned his hair—he just looks sickly."
But Christian's bizarre behavior doesn't stop at his appearance...
