Christian's Iconic work

Bale has not only left fans impressed with his acting skills, they are also left in awe of his transformations.

Over the years, Bale has not only left fans impressed with his acting skills – they are also left in awe of his transformations.
Bale's career has been constantly filled with transformations that involved him losing or gaining a significant amount of weight, wearing prosthetics and more.
One of his most famous transformations was for 2004’s The Machinist, which saw him shed 63 pounds.
Not long after, he had to gain 100 pounds within a year to film for Batman Begins.
After yet another dramatic transformation for his role as Vice President Dick Cheney in the film Vice, Bale decided to seek professional help.
He said in 2017 during an appearance on CBS Mornings: "It was the first time in my life that I realized I had to do this in a smart way. I've lost weight, I've gained weight, [but] I never went to a nutritionist in my life. It was the first time that I said, 'You know what? I better really do this the right way.'
"In the past, for losing weight, I went, 'Ah, I'll just smoke and drink whiskey and eat everything,' and it worked! But I'm in my mid-40s now and I just thought, 'Probably just eating cream puffs nonstop is not gonna be so good for my ticker.'"

Nicolas Cage also stars in the film alongside Bale.
