Christian Bale tirade audio: Christian Bale freak out text / transcript


Looking for the infamous Christian Bale tirade / Christian Bale freak out audio? We've got it right here, plus an excerpt of the transcript as well. This has been hot item on the web these past few hours after the audio was released / leaked to the public. Although we've heard about it before (when the incident happened a few months ago), the public didn't have an idea how bad it really was until this audio clip was released recently.

The incident happened on the set of "Terminator: Salvation". Apparently having a bad day after shooting scene after scene of the upcoming movie, Christian Bale completely lost it when the movie's

director of photography, Shane Hurlbut, ruined a scene after he accidentally walked onto the set. As you will hear from the audio clip, Christian Bale's brutal tirade was laced with expletives, sounding like a man out of control. I've had a few encounters with guys who have lost their tempers but this one is different. I can just imagine the tension it caused on the movie set.

You will hear Hurlbut apologizing the Bale a few times but this seemed to spur the actor to freak out and lose control even more. This reminds me of the family controversy Bale was involved in a few months ago. Does this screaming incident make you feel any differently about allegations of abuse against Christian Bale by his mother and sister last year? Hmm.

Christian Bale, most remembered for playing Batman in The Dark Knight, went on an F-word tirade that included threatening to kick his 'f--kin' ass', screaming and threatening to quit the movie if the bosses didn't fire the Hurlbut. The audio was apparently sent to the film's insurance company late last year in case Christian Bale quit.

Christian Bale tirade text / Christian Bale freak out transcript


Bale: Kick your f--king ass!
Hurlbut: Christian, Christian ...
Bale: I want you off the f--king set you prick!
Hurlbut: Christian, I'm sorry.
Bale: No, don't just be sorry, think for one f--king second. What the f--k are you doing? Are you professional or not?
Hurlbut: Yes I am.
Bale: Do I f--king walk around and ...
Bruce Franklin: Christian, Christian ...
Bale: No, shut the f--k up Bruce! Don't shut me up!
Franklin: I'm not shutting you up.
Bale: Am I going to walk around and rip your f--king lights down, in the middle of a scene? Then why the f--k are you walking right through like this in the background. What the f--k is it with you? What don't you f--king understand? You got any f--king idea about, hey, it's f--king distracting having somebody walking up behind Bryce in the middle of the f--king scene? Give me a f--king answer! What don't you get about it?
Hurlbut: I was looking at the light.
Bale: Oh, good for you, and how was it? I hope it was f--king good, because it's useless now, isn't it? F--k-sake man, you're amateur.

Bale: McG, you got f--king something to say to this prick?
McG: I didn't see it happen.
Bale: Well, somebody should be f--king watching and keeping an eye on him.
McG: Fair enough.
Bale: It's the second time that he doesn't give a f--k about what is going on in front of the camera. I'm trying to f--king do a scene here, and I am going 'Why the f--k is Shane walking in there? What is he doing there?' Do you understand my mind is not in the scene if you're doing that?
Hurlbut: I absolutely apologize. I'm sorry, I did not mean anything by it.

Bale: Stay off the f--king set man. For f--k-sake. Alright, let's go again.
McG: Let's just take a minute.
Bale: Let's not take a f--king minute, let's go again. You're unbelievable, you're un-f--king-believable. Number of times you're strolling and f--king around in the background. I've never had a DP behave like this. You don't f--king understand what it's like working with actors, that's what that is. That's what that is man, I'm telling you. I'm not asking, I'm telling you. You wouldn't have done that otherwise.
Hurlbut: No, what it is, is looking at the light and making sure, that you are ...
Bale: I'm going to f--king kick your f--king ass if you don't shut for a second! Alright?
Bale: You do it one more f--king time and I ain't walking on this set if you're still hired. I'm f--king serious. You're a nice guy. You're a nice guy, but that don't f--king cut it when you're bullshitting and f--king around like this on set. I ain't the one walking. Let's get Tom and put this back on and let's go again. Seriously man, you and me, we're f--king done professionally. F--king ass.
