Christian Bale in an interview resource OMG said about participation in the final part of the project from Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight 2: The Legend Continues."
- How is it to be involved in the anticipated movie of the year? What is the burden of responsibility?
"Well, as actors, we have done our part. Pressure and the burden of responsibility lies on the Christopher Nolan. But I must say that for every movie I play, as if no one is going to watch it (laughs). That's better, because you cease to strive to make a definite impression: "What do think about this people?" So, I usually say to myself: "Do not think anyone watching this film, so do everything as you see fit, and is expected to be correctly according to other people. "
- What is the place you remember the shooting and liked it more than others?
"I must tell you about one of the places, which certainly would have mentioned all the participants of shooting, and that was a real hell on earth - it is India. When we started shooting, we had a couple of days in Jodhpur, and all the local thought we were sick assholes (laughs). We went on a 50-degree heat, and then returned to the room with air conditioning, and said, "Oh," because it seems like you're poking your head in the freezer. In this room, the temperature was 30 degrees, that is, you can imagine what was it. Just a baptism of fire. With regard to our well-being, by the end of the day we started to rave because of the heat. But now there is something to remember!"
- What do you think will be the legacy of the trilogy? And that would leave the viewer to you personally?
"I believe that time will put everything in its place. For me, it looks like a systematization of the available data: the first time you watch a movie, you watch it after a while, and then, after a few years, you get an answer. As for me, as participant, I believe that among the trees of the forest did not see. "
- Is Chris the same director, with whom you would like to work in the future?
"Yes, absolutely."
- You mentioned that you will not miss Batman costume.
"It's a double edged sword. There are certain moments when you put on a costume, and you begins a migraine. This year, I fell awkwardly on my back, or did something wrong and hurt my back a month. It was hard. I used to that the back is usually sore for three days, but now I'm 38 and in the morning, I limped like an invalid. That is, this year things changed for me, I began to get tired faster. But as soon as you start to complain, here comes the idea there is nothing to whine because you play the legendary hero. "
- Will Batman have new devices?
"Of course. He was always ready to present something new. And always it is something out of the ordinary, is not it? Batman does not let you go without demonstrating a new gadget."
- In Batman's violent fans, and the Joker is much better known as a villain than Bane, which is a pretty obscure character. The question is which way you go, because most people do not know anything about Batman, except for the nerds, who know too much.
"Here we have a bald actor. Tom Hardy comes through, that others would not go. Being bald and respect for Chris in his decisions ... we are here, damn it, an actor who has created a phenomenal villain."
- What did you feel after reading the script for the first time? What were your impressions? What was it like to dive into this world again?
"I am accustomed to this process, because I went to Chris home and read the script there. And I read terribly slow. And when I'm given the opportunity to read, I usually read, reread and reread - I think Chris could not believe it. Chris all the time came for me, thinking I was asleep (laughs). We are interrupted for lunch, it was getting dark, the family gathered for dinner. And I was sitting, meeting and seeing off guests (laughs). "

"Perhaps I can’t answer it and now (laughs)."
- In "The Dark Knight 2" you have some accent. What did you do with your voice?
"I can not tell you. However, nothing."
- How is it to fight with Christian Bale - he a fighter, you are - a warrior? (K. Bale starred in the movie "The Fighter" and T. Hardy - in the "Warrior").
"I love working with Christian. Yes, I like to work with all. And meet again with Chris Nolan was also nice. All team members of this project are very friendly people, real professionals. When you work with Chris, you do not feel any suppression of the individual with his hand. That's fine. Therefore, all play their roles in an atmosphere of trust and peace. "
- Can you describe us your experience, during the filming in mask and costume?
"It's hot. Very, very, very hot. Yes, we all just heated. When you think about guys who are in Afghanistan, or Baghdad, and about the equipment that they have to put on, slip the idea that you have not so and bad. But, in fact, in a suit and mask, very hot and hard to breathe. "
- Is it difficult to speak when you are in mask?
"Well, I did not hear, and no one hears me. These are the things (laughs). And then the magic begins."
- Maybe saying the text, you have helped yourself by gestures, facial expressions?
"I can not talk about magic."
- Now you respect Darth Vader in a greater extent?
"(Laughs) I grew up on the original trilogy "Star Wars". But Darth Vader is cool, is not it? Very cool!"
- You knew Bain before Chris proposed you to play it or you had to get to know this character?
"I do not have direct knowledge about the world of Batman. In this regard, I am like a newborn. I'm pretty reticent man, I spent a lot of time with my dog. It is no more. Each new project - a new experience, so it all starts from the moment when I take my role. "
- There are many incarnations of Bane, but all of them remains unchanged its vitality. Nolan likes to bring a sense of the plausibility of what is happening with the bulk of characters. So, how are you going to relate to reality of Bane?
"Well, if all of Nolan's always correspond to reality, then I should take his example. Yeah."
- When you're playing Charlie Bronson, and your character in "Warrior", both of these characters were bad guys, but the bad guys, which you loved. You are experiencing the same feelings, playing Bane, or it must be an absolute villain, who can not love you because you do on the side of Batman? You play it differently than some of your other characters?
"It's a different character, so of course I figure it's not like my previous characters. I think answering this question, I can say a lot of nonsense, so I will not say anything."
- Do you have any concerns because you enter "arena" after Heath Ledger's Joker?
"No, I do not think so. This would mean that I enter into a competition with someone prominent, and in fact not a question of whose talent whose work is higher and steeper. Goal is to become better as far as possible, but not better than anyone. Clear what I mean? What made Ledger - amazing. It's true. I have a role I should play, and I'll play it. I put it clear? "
- The last franchise in which you participated, was the project of "Star Trek" ("Star Trek: Nemesis”). You generally like to contribute to the big franchises?
"Working in "Star Trek" was a real discovery for me. Then I was very young. I think it worked for about nine months when received a role in this film, and it was something incredible. Work in the project has opened my eyes at such a young age that should not be afraid to play a responsible, for example, the villain in the Batman comics or hobbit - who else. Heroes of "Star Trek" are loved by many, and, therefore, to your great responsibility. Thus, the "Star Trek" was the launching pad, and, behold, I am here - incredibly grateful for the role of villain in Batman's world, over the size and quantity, and the importance of which, if I'm thinking, you begin to really get nervous. "
- What kind of scene you're shooting today?
"I must speak with 10 thousand people. I'm a little excited (laughs). Come on, cheer me up!"

Among the actors in the "League" had to participate, Adam Brody (Flash), rapper Common (Green Lantern), Armie Hammer (Batman) and Megan Gale (Wonder Woman).
However, the text of the tape is constantly corresponded, in addition, layered writers' strike and the lack of evidence on tax incentives (surveys were to be held in Australia), and eventually all of the above led to froze the project.
Since then, the League somehow was forgotten. But during this time Marvel launched a massive attack on the audience, producing two tapes per year and securing the line of its monumental paintings, "Avengers", which became one of the highest-grossing film in history.
While it is unknown whether the development of an entirely new picture, or in the case involving old developments.
