Christian Bale and his ridiculous cheekbones sat down with the UK edition of GQ, on which he graces the August cover, and chatted in detail about his latest film, The Dark Knight. Man, he’s everywhere these days. During the interview, the Welsh-born 34-year-old was asked to clear up some misconceptions, one of which was that he auditioned for the role of Robin in Batman & Robin.
Bale said he hadn’t and for added emphasis, said, “Let me tell you, if Robin somehow crops up in one of the new Batman films along the line, I’ll be chaining myself up somewhere and refusing to go to work.” That sounds hot. Can I get the address where this might be taking place, Christian?

Robin is my all time favorite character in DC. i get angry when people automatically dismiss this character when mention for an up coming movie. This is because Robin has been Stigmatized with a bad label from the past movies as well as people not understanding his background and importance to the story of Batman. Do your research he is a awesome character. Nevertheless these new movies have been based on the comics “The Long Halloween and Dark Victory”. The origin of Robin sorta starts towards the end of Dark Victory which although he really doesn’t put on the costume until the very end, it still shows how he graduates to becoming The Robin as Batman’s partner. Dick Grayson has suffered a terrible lost just like batman, he is also very intelligent, cunning, and acrobatic from his circus life which is vital, believable, evidence to support his abilities to the duo team. If Nolan wanted to he can work his magic and make it his own as many of us have faith in him now.
(Quoted)”His parents…circus acrobats-had been murdered. And I saw myself in him… and wanted to make a difference in his life…”(Batman)
