Christian Bale throws in the towel at Thor 4’s Muscle War at Chris Hemsworth
He revealed that in an interview with The Wrap. His character Gorr looked very different in the comic template than in the finished film. more muscular. And more revealing.
I took a quick look and said, “He’s wearing a thong. Nobody wants to see me like that. He was also extremely muscular in the comics. And I was doing a movie where I looked very skinny. I said like, “Nobody wants to see me in the thong.” And there’s no point in working out. Because nobody can keep up with Chris.
In fact there is various differences between the Gorr of the template and that of the canvas. Muscles and outfit are just two. Nonetheless, many fans find Bale very strong as a godslayer. So strong that not even Thor 4 can ruin it.
Bale’s admission may also surprise superhero fans in particular. After all, as a Dark Knight since Batman Begins, he’s been pretty muscular too. and gained a whopping 100 pounds for the role (via ScreenRant).
