CHRISTIAN BALES' BATMAN PANIC ATTACKS

This sounds awful!

“I was standing on the back lot where they were creating the suit, and I had a few minutes to myself, staring up close in the mirror just thinking, ‘This isn’t going to work. I’m claustrophobic, I can’t breathe, I’m getting a headache already, and this is all going to go very badly.

I just said to myself , ‘Breathe deeply for a few minutes. Try this out. Don’t run around yelling and making an ass of yourself.

I just had flashes of what an asshole I would feel like saying ‘Well, I wasn’t able to play that character, because I panicked every time I got in the suit.”

Thankfully, he made it through filming the movie.
