Co-star Defends Bale Blow-out

Christian Bale's TERMINATOR SALVATION co-star Terry Crews has come to the actor's defence after a taped on-set rant was leaked on the Internet.
The Dark Knight star could be heard angrily reprimanding an assistant director for walking onto the set while Bale was shooting a scene.


Furious Bale demanded the crewmember be fired, while hurling abuse and profanity at the careless assistant.


But co-star Crews insists too much is being made of the actor's outburst.


He tells HollyScoop.com, "Anyone can have a bad day... I'd get mad too if I was the number one star in the world and people started to mess with me. He is a class act! He is one of the greatest actors ever.


"I'm vouching for him. I know he's a nice guy. I know he's all about his work."


Bale's angry rant was caught on tape and sent to the insurance company behind Terminator Salvation - just in case the actor decided not to complete the film following the incident.

Okay, just because someone freaked out on the set of a movie is not that big of a deal. To say that you won't watch any of his movies is quite ridiculous. I used to be a stand up comedian and people use to heckle me but I could find ways to stop them, but for others that is not their style. Some people have bad days or have anger issues to deal with. Also there is no video of this incident so it is hard to judge what was going on in the scene. It is possible that it was the emotional climax of the movie and he did it "perfect" or did it just the way that he wanted to do it and someone completely ruined it. Also, because it is Terminator 4 it is also possible that this happened during a stunt scene in which this person could have been hurt for not being in the right spot. I have listened to the audio myself and Bale said that it was the second time the person had done this. So, I just want to say that the comment above should not forever crucify this amazing actor. Please watch some of his movie to get the idea that he is a method actor which is an intense approach to acting... see reference Daniel Day-Lewis. Plus... one more thing, this is also the first time some idiot set up an actor by taping this and leaking it on the internet. There is no way to know how many of your favourite actors might have done this in the past. Anyways.. give this a rest.

I will NEVER pay a cent to see a Christian Bale movie again. What an egomaniacal, out of control freak! I don't care if he ends up with 10 Oscars.He's not worth anything in my estimation. So some one crossed his line of vision. How many obscene screeches does Mr. Perfect need to get his point across. Obviously he enjoys everyone cowtowing to him and loves throwing his nasty weight around. I hope he is blackballed!
