The Smartest Guy

[Blind Gossip] This actor has been nominated for big acting awards before. He may have even won once or twice.

However, he may not like what happens when it comes to the Academy Awards this year!

I worked on [project redacted]. He’s a good actor, but anyone who has ever worked with him (talent and crew) despises him. He thinks he’s the smartest guy in any room. He’s an obnoxious, rude, vile, nasty, know it all. He has the unique ability to upset every person on the set. He will definitely get nominated, but he will have trouble getting a win because so many people hate him.

Academy Award Nominations will likely be announced on January 22, 2019.

Guess we’ll see what happens!

    While he sounds obnoxious, he IS a talented actor and seems like an intelligent perfectionist. Plus he really shows his insane commitment to his roles by losing and gaining crazy weight. So at least he has talent and drive to back him up instead of being a blowhard without nothing to show for it.

    That picture reminds me of his character in American Psycho.

    I’ve read he is a method actor who stays in character even when not filming.

    Bale is a talented actor who’s not a nice person. There are plenty business executives who fit the same description. And it comes down to culture… what I don’t understand: if an actor threatens to quit a film because a director and producers refuse to confront him *in the moment* the first time he misbehaves, then let him quit. Sue him for breach of contract, and do interviews with every media outlet to tell them why he quit – because he didn’t like behing held accountable.

    My money is on Christian Bale but it’s cracking me up that there are SO MANY options. So many jerks in Hollywood (both genders, of course.)

    Christian Bale ! Every successful A list Actor has a a little * in them and has their moments but I don’t believe this is Bradley Cooper or it would have come out by now . Christian Bale is severely high strung and gives off arrogance and has had more moments than that leaked tape but I say , unless he does an OJ thing, leave him alone people . His personality is part of what makes him a strong Actor with a good track record of great work .

    • Catharsis says

      …leave him alone unless he beats and terrorizes and eventually murders his estranged wife and her friend?

      There are no words.

    Christian Bale.

    I have absolutely no doubt it’s him. He comes across as an absolute a-hole.

    I think he’s a great actor. That hoohaa with the set walk through was understandable if over the top imo

    I think he’s a great actor, but probably an a******, as it seemed when that infamous set meltdown tape leaked.

    • DaniJo says

      But Christian won an Oscar after that on set tirade and after the incident with his mom and sister. I’m guessing the Academy doesn’t hate him that much. LOL

  29. thisisannoying says

    I don’t think this is him, but I find that the insufferable Ezra Miller fits the bill completely. Can’t stand the guy

    Christian Bale in Vice. He’s very talented and I enjoy watching his movies, but he seems like a jerk in real life and I imagine very difficult to work with.

  31. LizzieBennet says

    Actor: Christian Bale, who’s already won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor and has had many other nominations.

    Movie: Vice

    What do you think of him? I think he’s an extremely talented actor.

  35. diz925 says

    Bradley cooper-

    He’s from the same area as me. Up until A star is born was released he was someone who was known to never have forgotten his roots. He was a local favorite. He would come here to promote everything and anything. The local radio shows love him, etc. Well cut to promoting AStar is Born and he was awful when he came through Philly. Really acted” Hollywood”. After the stories I heard i can totally picture him acting smug and arrogant on that set.

    Christian Bale

    Veep

    He’s a very good actor, but you can see the arrogance from a mile away.

  43. NoseyNana2008 says

    Actor: Christian Bale

    Movie: “Vice”

    [Optional] What do you think of him? He is a good a actor, but I believe he’s very full of himself, and not in a good, self-confident way.

  44. plumplum says

    I bet everyone here will write Christian Bale but he already won every acting award for The Fighter and was nominated /won some awards since

    • Midwestgurl says

      You may be right, but it does say this guy has won awards for his work. Christian Bale did not win a BAFTA for The Fighter. That’s from his native country. He lost to Mark Rylance. Now maybe Mark put in a better, more convincing performance, or maybe Christian is not liked by BAFTA members.

  47. Khaleesi says

    Bradley Cooper or Christian Bale.
    I’m going to go with Cooper, though because of the “in the room” clue. He has been nominated more than once and has never won. This attitude also helps explain what happened at the GGs

  51. showmancer says

    At first I thought Bradley Cooper but he hasn’t won a Golden Globe or an Oscar before. Matter of fact, I think he’s been nominated for a lot but never wins

  55. Chozen1 says

    Christian Bale

    Haven’t liked him since the aussaulting his mama thing. Says a lot about a guy!

    Actor: Christian Bale
    Movie: Wise
    Optional: Good actor but I’ve heard/read he’s a huge doucher. Dude, you aren’t better than anyone else, hate to break it to you.

    Christian Bale (“Vice”)
    Bradley Cooper (“A Star Is Born”)
    Rami Malek (“Bohemian Rhapsody”)
    Ethan Hawke (“First Reformed”)
    Viggo Mortensen (“Green Book”)
    Willem Dafoe (“At Eternity’s Gate”)
    John David Washington (“BlacKkKlansman”)
    Ryan Gosling (“First Man”)
    Lucas Hedges (“Boy Erased”)
    John C. Reilly (“Stan & Ollie”)

    My betting is Bradley.
    Hoping it’s not Bale.

    • yo1774 says

      Lucas Hedges, really? i can accuse him of that lame * coming out (designed to make people think he is mostly straight when it’s pretty clear he is not) but he seems a really likeable guy. He is inteligent and articulate but he doesn’t seem an smart* at all

    Christian Bale
    Vice

    Someone should call his supposed professional dominatrix to whip some sense into him. We’ve seen the footage of Bales’ meltdown and diva s* fit. Talented dude.. should’ve lost the ‘tude long ago.

    • jodie99 says

      AGREED! He’s one of the few actors I read an interview with who seemed like an utter a$$. This was before he was hugely famous.

      I never again liked him after reading that interview. Good on the editors for allowing it to run as the interviewer wanted it to.

    • huhwhoami says

      this, I cannot help wondering, why was he dressed like an ice cream salesman at the Golden Globes, and why in heaven’s name is he trying to look like Barry Manilow, lay off the plastic surgery man, i doubt your own mother can pick you out in a crowd.
