Christain Bale – He Had His Assistant Sniff His Pits

Christian Bale’s dedication to the roles he plays as a method actor has seen him deliver great performances in films like American Psycho and The Machinist. He’s still at it, and in 2022 he’s scheduled to feature in Thor: Love and Thunder as Gorr the God Butcher. Bale has some peculiar habits, according to Harrison Cheung, his former assistant.

In a biography he penned in 2012, Cheung claimed that he went above and beyond the call of duty while working for Bale. That included sniffing Bale’s armpits before his red carpet appearances, and he also made sock-runs if Bale didn’t have clean ones.
