Christian Bale Has Once Again Morphed His Body For Our Entertainment

Ladies and gentleman, I am honoured to inform you that Christian Bale has undergone another frankly worrying body transformation to play a character. This time he’s chubbed up to play former U.S. vice president Dick Cheney, and we must all pray for his atrophied cells, which have undergone so much punishment over the course of his career.

Behold:

For the record, in case you have forgotten what the vampire lord of the Iraq War looks like, this is Dick Cheney:

That first shot especially is kinda eerily similar, to be honest. Bale is starring as Cheney in the upcoming Adam McKay film Backseat. The title refers to the fact that Cheney was often referred to as a ‘backseat president’ during his tenure as VP, with vast influence over actual president George W. Bush.

Suffice to say, chubby Christian Bale has become something of a hit online due to his extreme dad aesthetic. The clothes help – surely he doesn’t need to wear those baggy-ass jeans to play Dick Cheney.

Thanks to Christian Bale for acting as a inspiration to old blokes everywhere – buried somewhere under that dadbod is Batman.
