Christian Bale Fighting Again?

Yes, well sort of.

While the hot-headed actor is known for his on-set antics, this time Christian Bale fused the um…”positive” energy into a movie about fighting rather than using fighting words.

“The Fighter”  is a biopic currently still in production centering around Boston’s world lightweight champ “Irish” Mickey Ward.

Bale will play the role of Ward’s half brother Dicky Eklund, who served a decade in prison. After Eklund’s release, the former convict turns into Ward’s trainer and turns his brother’s career completely around. 

While Brad Pitt and Matt Damon were attached to the project for quite some time, it was Bale who won the role.

He will star along side Mickey Ward, played in the film by Mark Wahlberg.

Tons of ”F” bombs are sure to follow…
