Christian Bale continued doing Batman for his daughter
Christian Bale only agreed to play the Caped Crusader for a second time because he wanted to impress his daughter.
The actor first played the superhero in 2005′s Batman Begins and his second turn in The Dark Knight hits cinemas later this month.
But Bale is not a fan of the “crazy” stunts he is required to take part in for the Batman movies – and admits he only continues with the role to make three-year-old Emmeline proud.
He says, “People will say, ‘Why is he still doing this crazy s**t?’ But I’m OK with that. I’d like my daughter to see me do these things, as I saw my father do some crazy things and learnt to appreciate it. My philosophy isn’t so much, ‘Do what I do.’ It’s more, ‘Whatever you do, do it completely. Don’t do it half-arsed. Do it more than anybody else would.’”
Emmeline is Bale’s only child with his wife of eight years, Sandra Blazic.
