He's putting on weight for the role...
Its unclear what part of Cheneys life the as-yet-untitled biopic will portray.
Bales most famous physical transformation to date came back in 2004, when he played a man with crippling insomnia. Bale dieted for four months prior to filming, losing 28kg and bringing his total body weight down to an emaciated 54kg. After filming finished, the 6ft tall actor then had just six months to bulk up for his role in Batman Begins.

Spielberg I'm sure, little boy blew me away, years later it was "American Psycho", didn't see him between those films.
Amazing actor.

awhile back. It's the version with Wynona Ryder as Jo and Susan Sarandon as the mother.

Going through those rapid weight gains and losses can wreak havoc on your health. Tom Hanks said his doctor believes that his weight changes for roles may have been the preciprocating factor in the development of his Type II diabetes.
