Christian Bale is one of those actors who can turn himself into any character. In the industry, when you go for a specific role, it’s sometimes hard to get the job when you don’t look like that specific character or person. But, some actors can manipulate their bodies, their looks and their personas to score leading roles in TV shows and movies (not every actor is ripped 24/7, just look at Leo and his dad bod). Christian Bale is just unlike any other star when it comes to changing his appearance for roles he’s playing in films. We’ve seen him gain weight, lose weight, and gain it again to hit the big screen. Just look at this chart:

Can you even believe that’s him – like, that’s the same person?
How f*cking crazy, right?!? Of course, Twitter was going insane over this transformation, because it’s ungodly.
