Kapow! Batman Christian Bale lets rip at arch enemy and just tears his pants
NO ONE usually messes with Batman and lives to tell the tale.
So perhaps Bane, the caped crusader’s arch-enemy, can count himself lucky yesterday that all he got was a rather embarrassing wardrobe malfunction during this fight. British actors Christian Bale, 37, and Tom Hardy, 33, got into character in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to film scenes for the much-anticipated film, The Dark Knight Rises.
But it seems that Bale, who reprises his role as the crime-fighting superhero, took his acting a bit too seriously by leaving a masked Hardy, who plays villain Bane, flashing the flesh in a pair of ripped trousers.
The two actors slogged it out on the steps of the mythical Gotham City Hall in a dramatic fight for a prison breakout storyline.
Also taking to the streets of steel city Pittsburgh, which is doubling up as Gotham, was Bane’s camouflaged vehicle which looked like it could give even the Batmobile a run for its money.
