Christian Bale does not have a reputation for being kind and courteous!

While filming his new movie, Public Enemies, with Johnny Depp, the actors barely talked!

"I wish to not talk unless we're doing the scene. I enjoy it that way. Johnny seemed happy to do it that way, too," Bale says. "So the answer is: No, we really didn't get to know each other better between each take."

Yikes!!

"So I guess I'll have to wait and get to know Johnny Depp someday," said Bale.

Maybe he just can't show his appreciation!

Bale claims he signed onto the project because in order to work with Depp and director Michael Mann.

"Michael Mann is one of the finest filmmakers around. His ability to excel at all aspects of filmmaking is stunning. I loved his thoroughness. I loved the research and his attention to detail. This is a director who has a unique perception of what every actor is doing at all moments," continues Bale. "I also did the film because I think Johnny is a superb actor. There is nobody else like him."

We hope they can be friends!

As long as Johnny stays clear of his eye line!!!!

Ah, c'mon Christian Bale! Don't hang up those tights just yet!

While out promoting his newest flick, Public Enemies (featuring Johnny Depp- def. checking this one out), Christian was asked about the future of the Caped Crusader.

His answer isn't great: "I really cannot tell you if there will ever be another Batman movie. Chris [Nolan, director] has obviously done an incredible job with it. He's devoted to the movie that he's on right now. I'm none the wiser about we'll ever be revisiting Gotham or not."

It's isn't a no, but it doesn't sound like a yes either.

Eh, when the well of cash starts to dry up from The Dark Knight, they'll get right on another flick.

The Christian Bale freak out flick, Terminator Salvation, opened to a warm welcome on Thursday, gaining $13.3 million dollars, with $3 million in just midnight sales alone.

It's reported that over the 4 day holiday weekend, the film is to make somewhere near $60 million dollars more, giving it a grand total in the $70 million zone.

With numbers like that, it's very likely it will take the number one spot at the box office.

Will U go see it?

I do like taking stuff seriously that a lot of people look at as nonsense. I enjoy the insanity of that. And I like the commitment that is needed for that. But this is a movie about time-traveling robots. I guess I’m always wary of this bullshit where people are makin’ it sound like what you do is far more impressive than it actually is. Everyone always tells you that you’re the only one that can do this or that role right, and if you say no, they go to somebody else and tell them that they’re the only one that can do it right. But when they’re talking to you, you’re always the Best Actor of Your Generation.

In the new issue of Esquire UK, wacktor Christian Bale outright accepts that his now infamous outburst on the set of Terminator: Salvation may have been an overreaction.

And that's putting it mildly!

"It’s not excusable what I did," he says. "I went way overboard. A lot of it was to do with the scene we were doing and stupid as it may sound to a lot of people, my character was going through a great deal in that particular scene."

You're right…it does sound stupid!

Bale also discusses the very public recording of the incident, the embarrassment of having the whole world hear it, and opts to make no comment about the alleged hotel assault involving his sister and mother that landed him in a police station for four hours on the eve of the European premiere of The Dark Knight.

“I just think it’s a family matter. That’s the end of it. I will not take part in this gossip nation, you know?"

Too late for that!

Christian Bale's on-set temper tantrums haven't effected The Dark Knight star's career at all.

It's been confirmed that Bale will be reprising his role as Batman for the third time in the upcoming sequel!

The Dark Knight director Chris Nolan will also be returning to the billion-dollar-franchise, but the film is nowhere near being ready for it's 2011 release date!

Why?

There isn't a script and negotiations haven't been made between Warner Bros. and the cast and crew!!!

Insiders have revealed that the laid back and cheerful attitude the studio has projected towards the sequel will change "once checkbooks start opening… Because money talks and once the pens start writing the extra 0's, everything is fair game."

Better get on that, fellas!!

There's always some sort of trouble when it comes to $$$!!!

Christian Bale's sister, Sharon - who filed assault charges against her brother back in July - is coming to his rescue.

That's unexpected!

The sis called the infamous Bale Out "totally out of character," adding that the actor seems "incredibly stressed and angry at the moment" and that she thinks her brother "might need help."

She said that when she filed charged in the summer, it was for a similar verbal attack, and so she went to police because she "felt he should be cautioned."

She insists, however, that Bale is "normally a placid guy."

Yeah, about as placid as BritBrit with an umbrella!

What's with folks getting all aggro lately? Is it the recession?
