Acclaimed Actor Christian Bale Stars in “The Machinist”
Compared to Chris Hemsworth, Christian Bale had to drop some considerable weight for his role in The Machinist. Bale went from 173 pounds to 110 pounds, taking severe measures to seem like his character, which is incredibly emaciated owing to insomnia. To reduce the weight in four months, Bale only ate one can of tuna and an apple each day with black coffee and water for drinks. He only ate roughly 260 calories each day, and he was exercising on top of that. We don’t know how he survived like this, and he must have been thrilled to eat normally again once the movie was completed.
