PIC: Has Bale Been Beaten-up by Bane?

An image of a bashed-up Christian Bale has been leaked that some are saying is a make-up test for the battle-damaged Batman post Bane.

Obviously, this pic looks to be taken some time ago unless the facial hair will be a new addition under the cowl...

Here's what MovieWeb had to say about it...

Some fans claim that this is what Bruce Wayne will look like after getting beat-up by Bane (Tom Hardy). Others think it might be a make-up test from the now-in production drama The 13 Women of Nanjing, which Christian Bale is headlining. In a few short hours, we may even find out that it's some super old picture from Terminator Salvation. But hey, its fun to look at, and maybe this is the handy work of Bane after all. Who knows? Check it out below.




The validity of this pic is up for debate, so let'er rip below, and be sure to "confirm" or "debunk" in the voting system below.

The Dark Knight Rises comes to theaters July 20th, 2012 and stars Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Tom Hardy, Anne Hathaway, Marion Cotillard, Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The film is directed by Christopher Nolan.

well as we have established some people here at CBM simply suck ass

so i did the real work for them:

the picture is indeed from 2006, it shows the skills of connor o sullivan make up artist for the film Rescue Dawn. he did however also work on the dark knight. the picture in question is 100% from the the movie rescue dawn though (if you check in the background you can make out a set from the film on a photograph)

here is the website of mr o sullivan with the picture in question.

I think Bane´s damage would be slightly greater than this.

Huh...I thought the sound guy in the Termnator movie managed to get a hold of Bale.

FYI grif, Bale has been said to be training so vigorously for the film that he'll look more like an Olympian athlete than an actor (which should be interesting).
And yeah, this was posted a while back, but that article never got mainpaged.

When I saw the picture on the front page I thought "With the facial hair he'd have to be undercover and had let himself be beat up in order to infiltrate some group."

But it just being an old shot from Rescue Dawn is kind of a let down.

This is obviously the results of the big brother of Shane Hurlbut (The lighting guy from Terminator - Salvation) having a 'quiet word' with Bale over his notorious rant at his little brother.
