Best known for his roles in American Psycho and Batman, fans of Christian Bale might be surprised to see him wearing his dancing shoes in his latest film.
Speaking to the NME, the actor said he “loves to dance but isn’t much of a dancer”, and drew inspiration from bands like Manic Street Preachers for his role as Frankenstein’s monster.
Bale, who was born in Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire, stars as the iconic character in gothic romance film The Bride!, with Oscar nominee Jessie Buckley playing the titular character.
Director Maggie Gyllenhaal asked him to send her “tunes, tunes, tunes all the time” of music and artists that inspired his performance.
