Will Christian Bale be sporting a beard in The Dark Knight Rises?

Christian Bale, could he be sticking with the beard he had on for a scene in The TDKR.

Well this is more of a speculation rather than news or facts because I was watching the 83rd Academy Awards and I saw Bale had a big bushy beard and it got me thinking could he be having beard for the movie that will be filiming in just 3 months, I dont know but this is what I can see happening for probably the first 15 min to 30 mins in TDKR. Bale could have a beard due to the fact of being depressed and sad of the fact that Rachel is dead. Obviously he would not keep the beard for the whole film but I can see him having the beard for 1 or 2 scenes in the beginning of the film. So what do u guys think? Is this just stupid of me or is it possible.

If you watched/listened to/read about the backstage press conference, you wouldn't have to make this article.

(Bale will shave off his beard halfway through filming his current movie, Zhang Yimou’s Nanjing Heroes, he said. And then?

"When I finish the movie in China, it's straight on to Batman," he said.)

Bale is just sporting his Jesus look at the moment and I'm pretty sure that he will shave his epic beard when filming will start.

Bruce Wayne could spend the first 15-30 minutes of TDKR holding an oscar as he considers making a career in Hollywood before Bane shows up and destroys his dream. Just saying this cause I saw Christian Bale holding an oscar yesterday. What do you guys think?

am i the only one who thinks Bale's beard doesn't fit him. It is oddly a very different color than the rest of his hair.

lol@this article. It's a freakin' beard, all he has to do is shave it. TDKR isn't even filming yet, and I think he is currently doing another movie.

Bale has been sporting that beard for awhile now, and I'm pretty sure he's not gonna have it in the movie.

He can't have a beard under the cowl, nub. Stubble at most but Christian Bale doesn't need to keep the mountain man beard.

Well, I never thought he'd have the beard for TDKR, but Real213, I'm with you. Matches Malone would be epic. Think about it...Batman's likely going to go into hiding. How else might he stop crime? By being a part of it. Plus, it would give Bale a chance to show some range in these movies. He's capable of it. I've seen it in many other films. MAKE THIS HAPPEN!

He won´t be with this beard in TDKR.

Batman is known for stuble, and that would be a nice touch, but a [frick]in fish and chips beard with handle-bar mustaches? Come'on, GTFO, just... gtfo.

The only reason he is sporting a beard and longer hair is because he is in between movies.He even said it in an interview, when someone asked him why he was sporting a beard he simply said "im unemployed", meaning he was currently not filming any projects.Obviously he will shave it for TDKR.
